I have a collection of .BIN files from somewhere upthread and have decoded their header format. I tried and failed to find it on line - closest I got...

Yes, it's way over powered for this job. Compared to the Sorcerer it has nearly 300 times the speed and 10 times the memory. As a serial server, it's...

from the picture it seems you got a SUPER EXPANDER https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Expander that's a 3K RAM expansion + 4K ROM with extended...

I think the seller is bed-ridden with heart failure. I'm not sure they want to package anything.

There is an alternative when a person won't ship. Not worth it necessarily for the discussed machine, but you can open an account with FedEx, give...

Mississauga region.

There it is, ported to mode-x (320x240 60Hz). It works perfect on PCem emulator(8086 8Mhz + VGA ISA 8 bit). I think the smooth panning is better now...

Alright, let me quote Alan Cox (aka etchedpixels), Linux kernel guru and founder of the Fuzix project, talking about Fuzix on 68K: (...

Ontario is roughly the size of Texas! :-)

Numbers 1- Myst, 2- Doom, and 4- Rogue Spear are no longer available. That leaves Battlefield 1942 and the WarCraft box and manual. If you own...

Welcome. If we can help let us know. We're glad you're here.

Dave is correct; the board is all ENIG plated (~5u Au over ~200u Ni) as opposed to hard gold (30u Au over 100u Ni) on the fingers. So the boards...

I have one of these unassailabled for 40 +shipping no case..

There's no 32 bit mode on an 8086 (or a 186 or 286 either)--which is what I was contrasting with the 68000.

I imaged the Zip Tools disk from my drive, but that was a SCSI version so may not have the right drivers for your IDE unit.

I have a couple of boards going through JLPCB at the moment and asked exactly the same question. No, the gold on the fingers is not hard gold. ...

The 200 folded; screen above, keyboard below. See: http://oldcomputers.net/trs200.html 80C85, 2.46 MHz is in the 100. -CH-

I haven't had any issue with GOG, but wanted to share a similar story regarding Acorn computers. An individual purchased the licenses from various...

Nice post overall; just a few comments on the above quoted sections. First, the segmented architecture of the x86 should, in my opinion, be...

Hello Felix, et bienvenue sur le forum :)

I think the idea is that you wouldn't hear it very often. It's only with games or music would it be an issue, and that wasn't the 1984 AT's target...

So in a nutshell you are saying its easier to use an 8kb card rather than the 3kb card?

*Shrugs* Works for me. Double density media, generic brand purchased from Microcenter, with holes lovingly melted through by a $5 RadioShit soldering...

If you want it fast and cheap, then install the cheapest VLB card you can find. Eg. Cirrus Logic CL-GD5428, possibly with 2 MB of RAM - they are...

Don, When you say "gold fingers", does that mean hard gold on the fingers as opposed to the ENIG finish on the rest of the board? Seems like a...

I want one. Wasn't there also a Tandy 200, which iinm was a clamshell? Any relation to the 100? Didn't the 100 have an 8085? I had an instructor...
