Good Price on the NEC printers

I can ship you an NEC PC-8023A-C dot matrix printer for only $595.  I believe the normal list price is $795, but mail order prices are generally less.  I also have the Grappler interface card and cable, configured for the NEC printer, for only $150 (normally $175, I think).  And if you want both printer and interface at the same time, the combined price is only $695.

I have two of these printers, and like them better than my Epson MX-80.  Why?  Faster:  100cps instead of 80cps.  Fully equipped:  standard features include graphics, tractor feed, and friction feed.  Handier:  the friction feed is just like a typewriter, platen and all; and option switches, should you wish to change them, are accessible without removing any screws.  I run one of them with an Epson parallel interface, and the other with the Grappler.

If you would rather have a Spinwriter (that is what this newsletter is printed on), call me for prices.


Vinyl Diskette Pages for your S-C Assembler Binder

I am having 1000 special pages manufactured.  They will fit the binder that comes with the Macro Assembler, and will hold one diskette each and a 3x5 index card.  For $6 I'll send you ten of them. For $12 I'll send them in a binder.  For $36 you can have a binder with ten blank diskettes in vinyl pages.  The binder is also just right for storing back issues of AAL.


The Best Book So Far for Beginners

Roger Wagner's book for beginners wanting to learn assembly language programming is now out, at $19.95.  (My price is only $18.)  Called "Assembly Lines: The Book", it began as simply a reprint of the series Roger writes for Softalk Magazine.  But there is a lot more material in the book, and 100 pages of Appendices.  Appendix B, 70 pages, is a very lucid description of every 6502 opcode.  If you rank yourself as a beginning assembly language programmer, this book will be a tremendous help.
