It requires banking to function, and I'm fairly certain this has not been implemented in the NUC's circuitry.
-
Negative. Basic XE is not just a simple 8K cartridge.
-
Old school? Then what are you doing using these fancy languages like Basic XE and Action!? Pop in an Assembler cartridge and get programming!
-
But the 576NUC+ is just a tiny portable unit, while the 1088XEL is a full Atari system with expandability. Just like with an Intel NUC, I think you have to take the 576NUC+ for what it is, it's not really going to be anything more.

I noticed that running a fast 65C816 CPU (over 3.58 MHz) broke stereo detection. I've already fixed this for the next version where it still works even at 21.48 MHz (in Altirra).
-
SimCheck 1.5 has been released. This version includes a few fixes and adds 65C816 high memory detection. How much RAM can one shove into an Atari 8-bit?? Of course, this is emulated, but I did test on real hardware with a Rapidus.
-
Adding cartridges wouldn't be difficult at all...Panos, next version! ?
-
I don't think it requires any particular plugin, I believe this is implemented in the default plugin code.
-
I've all the components on hand, so I'll just have to order some PCBs and try out a couple of these. I can finally dispose of these original version V-Gate PCBs I have but never used. I haven't used CRTs in ages, so this is a very useful addition.
-
Very nicely organized!
-
I forgot to mention that SimTest is non-destructive.
-
Either just the address of a failed base memory location, or preceded with X and two digits for extended memory, showing the PORTB byte, or preceded by A and two digits for the Axlon bank number. It will continue showing each failed byte until the dedicated screen area is full (56 locations).
-
I've posted SimTest 0.8 which adds extended memory checking, so it can now test base, extended, and Axlon memory. This is still a work in progress.
-
Yes, you need to desolder them.

Atari 800 Replacement Keyboard
Panther replied to Multifarious Industries's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
The cost for me to package and ship a single board to you from here is probably more than it would cost you to order five from JLCPCB. You're welcome to stop by and pick one up though. -
This doesn't increase base memory beyond 48K, it will just add Axlon compatible memory, which Yoomp! probably won't utilize. I have seen some programs function with 52K of RAM on an 800 that don't work with 48K.

Here is the translation of the text from the page with the ROM posted:
-
It's an official ROM, I have two of them sitting here. This is the label: C101696-002 ©ATARI 1987 RP2364 2152 38 7L3 10 / 38 7L3 14 (date code probably)
-
Does anyone know what this ROM is? It's quite different from the others.
-
Thus, it's listed on my site as "XF551 360K 7.x NTSC {D438B4D9}.rom". Perhaps the community should designate it as 7.5 or 7.6 so it can fall in place. I opt for 7.5 since it's really just that format loop that's different.
-
I've stuck all the XF551 ROMs I've come across here: http://www.atariverse.com/files/rom/xf551/
-
There was a glitch in SimCheck 1.4's GTIA/CTIA detection, noticed with some systems. This has hopefully been corrected with version 1.4a.
-
Version 1.4 is mostly improvements in existing features, including a bit of a rewrite of how variables are stored, improved Mosaic memory detection, and a couple of display changes, but I did add GTIA/CTIA detection, now shown in the "Video System" line.

Protectant for unplated copper connectors?
Panther replied to Larry's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
I've seen a gold coating application for circuit connectors, but I don't remember the name of it. Gold doesn't oxidize. -
