    So far, all of the confirmed carts in the wild have the GROM (five boards so far). It appears to be the only Funware cartridge that was released with a GROM, as the one known Schnoz-Ola prototype was built on a standard 8K Funware board. The final version of that one would have had the GROM though, as the box had the same use guarantee that St. Nick did, and the only way to do that was with a GROM.

    Same with Cave Creatures and Lobster Bay! I saw your Lobster Bay labels said it required 32K. Why is this?

    iliketurtles,

     

    First of all, sorry for the long absence. I was visiting my family in Colorado. Did you know that if things continue the way they're going, Colorado will be called Denver? Second of all, pay attention to the game. Here, give me this: Play St. Nick and post your score up on here. But seriously, enter the competition. Winner gets to choose the game for January and get something from my dad, Opry99er! I mean, it IS almost Christmas! Ho Ho Ho!

     

     

    Talk again soon,

    It's OK. And St. Nick was an awesome choice.

    I know this is off topic, but my dad, Opry99er has a genuine Gram Kracker.

    So do I. My Corcomp 9900 micro expansion system has the disk controller. Honestly, I think the Myarc MPES/50 (I've got two- one in the original box.) is better because it's got a 32K, RS-232 with serial and parallel ports, and even one OR two disk drives, no need to buy another seperate disk drive! There is even one on eBay.

    There is a 44-pin connector on the side (it plugs directly into the console), so the only missing cable is the power cable. I have two of these--one similar to the one in the auction, and one that someone modified to add a shielded cable between the MPES-50 and the console. That cable is getting pretty flaky, so I will probably modify it back to the stock configuration to eliminate the problem since I have plenty of the correct connectors now.

    You can even see the soldering job now. It still sits unused plugged into a speech synthesizer that isn't even on the computer due to the errors it gives. I hope we can fix it this weekend. . . no more PEB!
