Re:For crying out loud
A 9402-236. From what I can tell, not much more than a decade old.
I also have:
Osborne 1 (should be arriving tomorrow)
DECserver 200/MC
and two Tektronix XP421C's.
The XP421C's are interesting... Shinomura had one, which is how Mitnick exploited the trust relationship. The buggers are vulnerable to SYN flooding, and possess a trivial ISN generator. I gave one to a friend, and we use them at work, but first we hop through our Linux boxen that are set up to SSH port-forward. If you've never seen a machine run an X server with no fans or HD, and 8 MB of RAM, you haven't really lived. ;)

P.S. And here are some pics (on top of the AS/400, those are ISA 5250 emulator cards). -

I'm adding more content to it as I get it, but here's what I have so far:
My Mirror.

Re:Convenient mirror...
Okay, new version, page 1 is complete, page 2 has some pictures missing, and no page 3 (sorry!).
Grab it in ZIP, BZ, or convenient browseable form.

Convenient mirror...
I grabbed what I could, but the site was in the middle of a meltdown.
Grab the .ZIP file, or the .BZ file.

Go grab this file.
Unzip, preserving folder names, and enjoy.

Re:JPEG does have a lossless mode
The Joint Picture Experts Group has a very nice applet available to demonstrate this, but they put it in a ZIP file for some reason, so you can't directly execute it in the browser. I have posted the applet here, with a slight modification to use an image borrowed from CmdrTaco's really crappy movie.
Enjoy!,

Re:Uses new compression standard
Actually, they use a lossy wavelet compression multiple times, until they've produced a perfect image.
The JPEG has a very nice applet which explains everything, but it is unfortunately stuck inside a ZIP file (why do you make an applet, then put it in a ZIP?). At any rate, I've posted a working copy here.
Enjoy!,

Re:Oh, really?
And, might I add, in the data: { 1, 2, 6, 7, 8 }, over 50% of the elements are "above average." So even if your misreading had been correct, you would still have been wrong. --J
