Info/files into, out of QL (w/ Win machine, Mac)

Let's see if I'm in the right place: I'm looking for pointers to information. That's without being told outright "how to" or "the information itself". Unless there's a willing soul out there :D . I'm looking for pointers to how to get things in and out of a QL, (which platform I'...

QL items to a good home, preferably pickup (USA)

“For Sale” Section demands price(s) on things, so I ended up here, as I only want to find a good home for some QL items. I have two QL systems; one needs to go. Both are computer (w/ SGC) + 12” Sinclair black monitor + external keyboard + printer. HOWEVER. The second SGC stays here as a spare. (So, ...

Re: SuperHermes

Whilst I still have plenty of stock of the original Hermes, Tony Firshman has now offered to make some more SuperHermes units. I was wondering what interest there would be in a new production run of these - price is likely to be £90 each Also interested in at least one SH here. Doug LaVerne 37830 USA

Re: 1st Time in 15 years!

It uses an IBM or whatever keyboard attaching by "one of those round plugs" to something snaking out of the case near one of the "Net" ports; doesn't look right from what I remember, so next daylight we open 'er up. Thanks.

Re: QL is 30 pledge sign-up. £430 so far

Seriously. To take 150 away just because QLis30 expenses were met is ... cheap, at least to me. I really do see not that I have to do something, but don't want to out of it being convenient not to do antyhing with committed (at least sorta) $$. Would the 150 (in equivalent USD) help QL Ethernet--or ...

Re: QL is 30 pledge sign-up. £430 so far

Looks like that was a pledge to QLis30 (now to TBD) of GBP 150 rather than "E" 150.

OUCH!! Re: QL is 30 pledge sign-up. £430 so far

I pledged E 150 to QLis30, lost track of having pledged, and so did everyone else! I was never nudged for the funds. I committed the money and so it needs to be redirected to some other QL cause, or, to remaining unpaid QLis30 expenses. Dave (are you still there?) and QL Ethernet? QUANTA something? ...

Cables - pay? D.Stew.

Derek, Can I just send you a E 20 note I think it was for the cables you made for me which so far are freebies which is not really appropriate for honest work? I still have not been able to scare up a PS as would be required to "test them first", even after one requested nudge & no fur...
