+OLD CS1 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 3.1. Checkout amiga.org and eab.abime.net for some good resources and where to go with 3.1. I recommend that you go ahead and get 3.9. You will need Kickstart 3.1 ROMs, which you probably already have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Hatter Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 I have no interest, but it seems like a good price if someone is interested in a P-Code card: http://www.ebay.com/itm/351042142278?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CudaSales Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 My Co-Worker saw the link and snatched it up quick. LOL He just asked me for the software but I do not have it.

+Ksarul Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 It's one of the earliest ones they made too--as those had the tan/brownish clamshells. Later they switched to black, and the last ones didn't have a clamshell at all. I seem to remember that there was an issue with the FDC chip in the first batch they built--the chips were from a lot that had some serious QC problems and they switched them out with a daughter board with a different FDC chip on it due to a temporary shortage of the original chip. They then just stayed with the substitute and incorporated it directly into later boards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you scrolled down far enough and I don't think you're talking about CorComp—they only used gray-painted clamshells. By the looks of the label, it is certainly one of CC's first ever—9/27/84, #5 !! ...lee [EDIT: strike-through per Tim's comments below] Edited April 17, 2014 by Lee Stewart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the looks of the label, it is certainly one of CC's first ever—9/27/84, #5 !! ...lee There are/were indeed multiple clamshell colors/types used by CorComp. The black and beige (I suppose tan is more accurate) were the two colors I ran across most often during my days at Cecure. TI Clamshells are usually the heavier beige and "black", both of which have conductive nubs that must be cut or taped if used with some non-TI cards. Then there are the Myarc plastic varieties of which there were both beige and black. I probably missed one or two and oddly enough, I don't recall grey though my internal pallete may be slightly obscured by the years.

RobertLM78 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 My CC RS232 has a dark grey clamshell - for the record . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+InsaneMultitasker Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 (edited) I had to take out the trash so I snapped a few pics from my work area. Three different CorComp cards. The cases all appear to be constructed pretty much the same. This black case has a slightly different texture, less metallic, than the 2nd variety. However, it is the only one with a TI logo (in my posession). The hole is there from a previously modified Geneve; I moved my HFDC into the case to utilize the case's heat sink quality (which isn't as good as an aluminum case by better than plastic) The silver color is my favorite. Nearly indestructible. Two Myarc plastic varieties. I think there is a third formulation but that particular case is (and will remain) in my Geneve Tower. The clasps that hold the case together become very brittle with age and heat. My few remaining Myarc cases are nearly unusable. The logo I mentioned earlier.

+Ksarul Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Myarc Personality cards (and possibly some of their other earlier cards production-wise) also came in TI metal clamshells. I have one of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CudaSales Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I have a CorComp Disk Controller and RS232 card myself and they are both Grey in color. Definitely not Tan, Beige or Black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eck Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 My CorComp Controller resides in a black case like Ksarul mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
