002: [Video] The Devil's In The Details

[The feed's at a weird angle, lock-tilted across a table covered in shavings of various metals and little splinters of ceramic, and...dude, is that breadboard? Oh, yes. On closer examination, the table is covered in it, and an explosion of wires that, at this angle, don't follow any discernible pattern and don't seem to be connected to anything.

Sudden darkness descends. It looks suspiciously like a charcoal hexagon pattern in some kind of woven material.

Hand over the camera. Sometimes, the oldest tricks are the best.

When the image changes again, there's a Program up in your face, looking content and relaxed, borderline grinning. He's well aware that he's sitting too close, and that it's too dark behind him to distinguish particulars of his surroundings.]

Greetings, Sacrosanct.

I'm looking for some very specific hardware. MOS-5602 DIP device. Attempted manufacture from diagram was...unsatisfactory.

There's nothing like the original, man.

You find one? And it's functional and intact? I want it. Reward available.

Substantial reward for functional, intact Texas Instruments model TMS34010 IC device.

Particulars are as follows: CMDRE[MOS]_KIM1.jpg, TMS34010.txt.

Your attention to this message is appreciated. Over, out.

Some of those files were pretty old, man. Incomplete records; retroactive analyses suggested tampering and/or damage. Any problems encountered?



Heard you were working on something. Interested in the particulars. Or I can haul scrap. Let's discuss this.
