CommVEx 2014 ideas

Thanks to EVERYONE who came by my UNIX technology this weekend, and lent your knowledge of this vintage technology.  These are my random notes, to be organized soon:

Writing MightyFrame Device Drivers - Manual

A million thanks to Al Kossow at bitsavers.org for providing us with a PDF of our first MightyFrame manual!

Writing MightyFrame Device Drivers - March 1986

Al also provided our first MightyFrame system overview brochure, as well as CTIX overview brochures...all a first for us to ever see!

Reconstructing an AT&T 7300

Several kind folks on comp.sys.3b1 and the MARCH Yahoo Group have suggested that, in order for us to gain a better understanding of the workings of the rare and elusive MightyFrame, that we should get familiar with the AT&T 7300 / 3b1.  

Many say that this machine, manufactured by Convergent Technologies for AT&T, is "functionally equivalent to the MiniFrame".  Even though the MiniFrame and the MightyFrame have significant differences, this certainly seems like a great next step for us.

So, thus begins our journey....
