30-pin SIMMs

An anonymous reader sent in: "I'm curently working on some 386s at home that use 30-pin SIMMs and all the ones I have are only 512k. Does anybody know where I could get some more? Or does anybody have any that they would be willing to give up? Also, does anybody know where i could get Slackware 3.x other than slackware.com?"

    I've had a 1 meg 30 pin simm of my keychain for the last 3 years, one of the memory chips broke off a while back. The other two could be in good working order. Sold: AS IS

    How do you run a computer in a freezer? Doesn't it get wet? Do you have to defrost it? Moreover, why do you run it in a freezer? Does it keep a grocery list? Does it run hot? Do you not have room? Does the freezer use it somehow? How does it get power?

    If you didn't want anyone to ask, you shouldn't have mentioned it.

    It's true, the /. editors want us to go someplace else. I'm just waiting for the banner ad to tell us where it is....

    I remember paying over $100 for each 1 MB SIMM back in 1990 and there's absolutely no way I'd be willing to part with one for less than $80 because they're still perfectly functional.

    I seem to have trouble finding my ass.

    I used both hands, even.

    Can someone help me find my ass?

    http://memman.com sells memory, including 30-pin simms. Not that it'd be difficult to with google, yahoo, altavista, lycos, or any number of other similar things.

    http://www.slackware.com/getslack has a list of mirrors. Some of them are fast, some of them are good, and some of them are both.

    Go away.

    Do you have, or know anybody who has, any IBM 1401 "system" software? We're looking for Autocoder, Cobol, Fortran, RPG, ... tapes. Sort 7 would be nice to have, too. We'd much rather have the tapes' or decks' contents than have them physically.
