On more than one occasion, I've made an offer, and the seller just countered with their listing price..... Sigh.

The 50 pin centronics is an external SCSI connector, the 19 pin connector is wired for an Atari ACSI port, possibly a rudimentary SCSI adapter.

It's a hard drive

in for 2, thanks!

Well, gcc can make msp430 binaries....

So, because i can be a tick neurotic, After I crimp, I put a wee bit of solder at the crimped end so that wires will never pull out. Leaves a nice rugged spade connector, and is probably massive overkill

I thought the jailbars were from the clock leaking into the video signal. Try a forum search, I know someone (ijor?) dug pretty deep into the jailbar issue on the 8 bitters

Definitely start with the power supply. No power light is odd, Vcc goes right to the KB connector (is the KB connector hooked correctly?) I've seen a couple 1040's with bad reset buttons that keep the machine in reset, might want to check that

Waaaaay off topic, but I did my Master's work on random numbers....... POKEY uses a linear feedback shift register, it is not random, and is completely predictable. (I was entertained by the linked article that said Atari random numbers are "Too random...."), OK, back to our regularly scheduled topic...

Very tempting.... SW Ohio, near Dayton....

You mean my falcon *box* is worth something? sheesh

Yah, I've observed that on several revisions of the GBS. Not sure why it does it, but the 'halo' around the mouse makes me crazy.

There's nothing about the 68k that would prevent multi-threading.

#181 has arrived =]

Well, i'd definitely like to be on the non-existent pre-order list =D

Big fan of LCD/LED technology, Almost every video output device in the house is one. However, I still have a ginormous 37" Sony Trinitron in the basement for the Jaguar and older consoles, plus a few CRTs for old computers. (ST monitors, Mac monitors and a really old SGI trinitron). A LCD is superior in pretty much every way, but for old hardware, you really need the output device it was designed for. The only reason to have the old hardware is to experience it exactly as it was, otherwise you don't need the old hardware and should go the emulation/FPGA route.

Check out the ST compatible LCD topic. http://atariage.com/forums/topic/230561-lcd-monitor-that-supports-st-low-res-nec-multisync-lcd-1970vx/ I have a couple of these, that's all I use for STs and old Macs now.

Got my payment email today, #181

Also, if you have some Classic Macs in your collection, the Nec 1970's seem to get along nicely with them. I got usable pictures out of a Mac II, IIcx, Centris 610, Performa 6115 and 6200.

Trumpet WinSock 2015?

If you are gonna run Win 3.11, Do it from inside OS/2 Warp.... so much nicer.

I emailed them, they sent me my # (depressing as it is... 181)

or on an unopened pallet at B&C or Best....
