Imperious Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 (edited) I got my Nanopeb a month ago, works fine. If You have a black/silver console, be careful as the pcb is very close to touching the metal part of the cabinet. I put a strip of insulating tape there just in case. Speaking of cases it could obviously do with one, You have to be careful where You push or pull when attaching and removing it. I got the V1 model with the slower but reportedly more compatible uart (Genuine TI chip) Haven't figured yet why I would need to use the rs232 port as I can just plug the cf card into my PC and modify the contents there. I realise however that others need that though. The only game I cannot find on Disk version is Alpiner, would be awesome if someone could convert if at all possible.

TI-Sissy Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 if the old guy who outbid me on my ice blue cartridge is reading this, you are on my poo poo list! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+OLD CS1 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 if the old guy who outbid me on my ice blue cartridge is reading this, you are on my poo poo list! "They" have been on my list before, too... I never got the feeling "they" care I cannot see that the "neat" factor is worth more than the current bid.

Omega-TI Posted March 17, 2014 Author Share Posted March 17, 2014 if the old guy who outbid me on my ice blue cartridge is reading this, you are on my poo poo list! Sorry Sissy, I did not know it was you. I cannot see that the "neat" factor is worth more than the current bid. Yeah, the $20.01 is me, if anyone really want's it that bad, it's theirs, I'm at my max. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, since we have officially adopted Sissy, maybe some kind soul -- "old men" I believe she called us? -- would pick it up and gift it to her (English: where every word can be a verb.) Or at least take pictures once it arrives and rub her nose in it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ksarul Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 (edited) Or I could just buy some clear plastic mix and some blue dye and make her a few of them using my cartridge molds. . .the one up for sale was a test casting made by Gregg to make sure they would work when he made the molds for me. Right now, I only have one option: BLACK, as that was the color I bought when I started the project to make cases.

OTOH, you saying you might make some new carts from your molds? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted March 17, 2014 Author Share Posted March 17, 2014 Who invited the party-pooper? OTOH, you saying you might make some new carts from your molds? THAT would indeed be cool! I'd like a 'smoked glass' look. Black, like the console, but with just enough transparency to see the internals. It would be PERFECT for Super Cart's too as the LED could stay totally internal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly more, depending on the cost. Game on! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omega-TI Posted March 20, 2014 Author Share Posted March 20, 2014 HOLY FREAKING COW! Now is the time to buy a TI! One of our own Atari Age members (Dano) has THE BEST damn TI-Super System I've EVER seen on eBay up for sale! If you ever wanted a "TOTAL SYSTEM", and I mean TOTAL, P-Box, Dual half-height drives, even an HDX card!! It also comes with a Super Cart, and tons of other stuff >> CHECK THIS OUT << He has LOTS of different photos to look at and an in-depth description of everything you are getting. If I didn't already have two P-Boxes I would not be telling you about this, because I would be bidding on it myself! Also in full-disclosure, he's a friend of mine and I've purchased things from him before, so you have nothing to worry about. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+OLD CS1 Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 That is a beaut. The disk labels are pretty cool, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted March 20, 2014 Author Share Posted March 20, 2014 That is a beaut. The disk labels are pretty cool, too. Yeah, he's a bit of a perfectionist. Whoever wins will be real happy. It's not every day you can get a complete ready-to-go system with enhancements. It'll be fun to watch the bidding near the end, because just the HDX and Super Cart are worth more than the opening bid alone. His auction did remind me of one thing I need to do to my systems though, when I upgraded my video, I forgot to do the alpha lock keyboard fix.

+Vorticon Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Is he leaving the TI community? I hope it's picked up by someone who wants to use the system, not just resell it for profit later. It's really tempting as a backup system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really tempting as a backup system. No, he's not leaving the community, but he has so much TI stuff he wants to thin it out a little... If you've ever looked at the "Photos's of Users Systems" on the Yahoo site, you'll have see this photo of his system. I guess he figures using three TI's at one time is enough, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've acquired too much stuff over the years and it's cramping my quarters (which are next to none to begin with). And I need to use any funds towards getting my car back on the road again. So, I'm not leaving the community. Matter of fact, I hope to participate more! I really do enjoy the forums but, I've got so many things going on at once, that I don't get to be involved nearly as much as I'd like to. BTW: That's an old picture of my setup. Here's an updated one. Sorry bout that bad lighting... room with no light makes it tough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only utilizing 2 of the 4 battery slots. I've since swapped it out with the desktop 1400 version I have. Fit's a little nicer on the desk plus it has feet! Oh, and actually, that's probably only showing 20% load because there are five LED's and I can only seem to draw up to two LED's worth - even with everything turned on! Maybe I should throw another PEB on there and see what happens... LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
