Alright this is about as far as I'm going to go on this. So I'll say it's complete for now.

I thought I was done, maybe not. I found a lot of pictures on Ebay for Tektronix Probe adapter and they seem to be for disassembly of processor instructions, but I can't find info on them. Maybe they are for the DAS9200 system, but it's very obscure. I made one page with it, but it seems incomplete 92DM31. It might take a while before I can figure this out. What can we usually do about Ebay photos? Is it alright to use them? If I don't own it and I can't take a picture of the item then I use them, but I do prefer taking my own. (even though I don't have the best camera).

Other thing, when I put ""Motorola 68030"" would it be a possibility that it just links to a wikipedia page maybe? Or do we want to keep this on this wiki. Either way, it's just I will probably not make an individual page for each processor.--Floopy (talk) 21:03, 22 May 2020 (PDT) --Floopy (talk) 21:03, 22 May 2020 (PDT)

You can redirect by using the internal link format with a wikipedia: prefix thanks to the interwiki setup we have (other example is tube:). See 68030 example.

I'm trying a little cleanup on the 1240/1241 section for clarity and readability e.g. eliminating some indirection and footnoting. As indicated in the text, there appears to be confusion and redundancy in Tek's part numbering for the ROM Packs; perhaps looking at the later catalogs will clarify this. Also, reorganizing analyzer entries chronologically, as by ascending model numbers doesn't make any sense e.g. DAS9100 came out before 1240.
