Will definitely keep you in mind. Unit should be here Wed/Thur next week.

Not sure. Listing only had pictures from above. Are you going to be doing another run Jedimatt42's TI-USB-99 Keys anytime soon? May have to consider one if its a membrane keyboard.

This picture is of the unit i just purchased from ebay. Looking between the key caps, i see white. Any ideas what type this one could be?

So, i am the soon to be proud owner of a second TI, this one to be precise: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Texas-Instruments-TI-99-4A-Battleship-Gray-/264521171122?nma=true&si=alDoCeGGIh1nZhCuU%2B1AbreBAJ0%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 Getting this one as a backup. I have a spare 32k, (not Jedimatt42 though, one of those slim-design ones without TIPI connector) will slap that in place on it once i give the console a good testing. Hopefully i have not purchased a lemon, but i doubt it.

I'm pretty sure it needs Basic with T.E. II inserted.

I (sadly) know at least one person who would get off on this type of pic.

Glad to see you back at it!

Is that your round TI disc to hold your beer/coffee? I like it 🙂

I still have some carts, but mostly just use FG99. Not planning on getting rid of the carts though anytime soon.

I know too well. I was "experimenting" as a youngen, totally unaware that i was being watched. Then my dad made his presence known, and yes, it changed the results of my experiment. What i was experimenting with will be left as a exercise in creative thought for the reader to ponder, and such thoughts are guaranteed to be random 🙂 .

Is this the final version of the game?

Need? I don't. Want? Yup. Why? Why not. May be fun to hack around with too.

Wow. Great progress! I am SO looking forward to this 🙂

That would be ideal for someone like me. Very interested in such a project. Was also wanting RS232, and almost decided on the Nano-PEB at first, but ultimately decided to go TIPI. If someone could make a board that sandwiches in-between the 32K (or future SAMS board) and TIPI to provide RS232 that would be great. Memory board > RS232 board > TIPI

Someone should make a Gamebook / Pick-a-path book version of Oregon Trail. Title it "Decisions & Dysentery".
