You should start a gofundme for a new TurboForth Cart. I'm in for $1.

Speaking of presentations...Senior Falcon has been working on a portion of the BASIC Compiler workflow which DRAMATICALLY speeds up the process. What I demo'd at FestWest17 is already the old/outdated way to manage Compiled BASIC. I'll have a short video out soon outlining these exciting developments. PS - Rich's presentation was pretty cool so the faithful on AtariAge has something good to look forward to...no pressure Omega. ;-p

1980-1981 Dallas TI Users Group We met at a Jesuit High School near SMU on Saturdays. Many rooms used with multiple demos each month. I remember meeting TI employees and having a few look-see demos with new hardware and software. I'd say 100+ people at some of the meetings. It was awesome! The only reason I left for Apple was the cost of upgrading from -99/4 to -99/4A plus PEB, plus disk drive, plus 32k far exceeded the cost of a ][+ with disk and nifty green screen monitor.

I'm trying to use it to assemble source code generated by the BASIC Compiler. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looking for the latest version of asm994a. Help!

Thanks again Omega for hosting an awesome FestWest! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The 30K Club is calling out for the Non-Evil one! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Go for it Omega! After all, you need to try to break the elusive 30,000 points barrier. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Change is good. We can always keep our PEBs but options are nice to have. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yup. That's the fix. Thx Lenny. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Great ideas! Just ordered mine! Thx!

Wrote it with FlashROM99 in mind. Funny, I never thought of testing the .bin in Classic99 since I have the real deal on my desk. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oh...you've tried that? Where are you stuck? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Try a higher difficulty level. Score multipliers are built in. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I purchased a TI in 1980 and it seemed like a great machine back then despite the many faults we can list today. The problems with TI marketing and this computer are much easier to see some 37 years later. What is it they say about hindsight? TI had no crystal ball. TI is still a company btw... Atari? Commodore? Tandy? Sinclair? <chirp> Perhaps they were the wisest of the bunch after all? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I will give you credit for being the first to argue in favor of a larger PEB. [emoji91][emoji91][emoji91][emoji91]bait Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The TI PEB can most certainly support a reasonably sized CRT. Many users here have CRTs atop their machines. Once you see some of that crisp and clean 99/4A F18A upgraded VGA output on an LCD, well... You won't want a CRT anymore. No blur, no ghosting, no bulky CRT. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

nanoPEBs do continue to pop up on eBay. You can get a 32k sidecar and a SD card reading FlashROM99. With that setup a BASIC programmer can: A. Program in BASIC on a PC via emulation using Classic99. B. Compile the BASIC program with Harry Wilhelm's (senior_falcon) BASIC compiler. Runs 20-50X faster than TI BAsIC!!! C. Save the Compiled program into EA5 format with Harry's compiler loader. D. Convert that file to binary rom (.bin) using Fred Karl's Module Creator2. E. Run your speedy Compiled BASIC program off the cartridge port via FlashROM99. Just an idea...let me know if you would like the details. Building the FlashROM99 kit is both easy and rewarding. The 32k sidecar is sold at an extremely reasonable price.

Has the nanoPEB build quality improved at all? Last year I read a few very negative reviews. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Seems like a good comparison to me and I'm a TI guy. Facts are facts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'd be interested if the venue was close to an airport. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
