    For parts or repair: $10 plus shipping for the pair. I recall that both power on and spin up, but won't read disks. May just need alignment or a belt. This was going to be one of those winter projects, but I've realized that I will never get the job done so I'm giving the next person in line...

    My CC was stolen and I don't understand the motivation.

    On Sunday I was checking my bank account online, and noticed a ~$10 charge that posted the day before that I didn't remember purchasing. I may be getting senile and have had a few bouts of drunken ebaying, but this one was definitely outside my brain. I contacted the merchant, and they dug up...

    I want Siri + Infocom

    On my 4 hour drive to visit family over the xmas holiday, my mind wandered to my Infocom games, in particular about how I actually want to play one when I got back home. Then it struck me. I'm basically trapped in my car, driving on a boring interstate for several hours. Why can't I play an...

The software itself appears to be long gone, and all that's left is this manual...
