Hi civilized World , a friend of mine gave me an NCR Tower 1632 from his company. This machine is no longer supported by NCR. The problem is that I have no devlopment system for this biest. There is only the c-compiler for compiling new kernels but no c-libraries. I tried to get a development systen from NCR, but they don't sell it anymore. Since it is an m68k machine with SysVR2 it should be no problem to run most of the public domain software available for unix, but without libraries....... Is there any good soul around still using this machine or having a tape around with a development system which he could send me. I'll use this machine as my 'homecomputer', not for any commercial use. Please mail me if you can help me, we may then discuss eventual 'conditions'. Thanks in advance Silvan Mueller
