Cluster adapter

[KenG]

I was organizing my collection and found a box with a speech adapter and a cluster adapter. There were two disks with the speech adapter, so I think I am OK there. Is there a way to bridge the cluster adapter to modern Ethernet? If not, I guess it will just be an unused part of my collection.

It would be very difficult to bridge the cluster adapter to modern standards, and to date nobody has looked into it.

Could you make disk images of the Speech disks you received? I have several loose sidecars, and I put a lot of tech info and IBM internal programs up at ftp://ftp.oldskool.org/pub/drivers/IBM/PCjr/speech/ but I don't think the actual speech disks that came with it were archived. I'd be happy to mirror them at that FTP site if someone can produce image dumps of the disks.

[KenG]

OK, I think they are copies of the original disks. I will try to get the images done over the next couple of days.

I just looked at the disks I have. They are the PC Enterprises Make Talk Software and Talk Sound Files. Do you already have these? If not I will image them.

[Trixter]

I believe I have them, but mine were from copied diskettes -- if you have known good disks, an extra set of data wouldn't hurt.
