Rybags #3 Posted February 8, 2011 PMSL. That's from atariksi. He'd endlessly bang on about what it could do, but I don't ever recall any "community" spirit WRT the thing, ie giving away the software or revealing the pinouts you need to use. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You have a beautiful command of the English language. And you are correct - go with APE. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Syfo-Dyas #6 Posted February 8, 2011 Crap crap crap. I just won the auction and must have been tired and read wrong last night. What I thought I had was one of those devices that allow you to use your dead Atari as a Keyboard on your PC. Anyone remember where to find those? I used to have the site book marked but lost the link. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used to have the site book marked but lost the link. So? Email Atardski and tell him it was a mistake and youll pay his relisting fee, but you dont want the piece of crap.. Its not worth $10.00, dude.. Its just a very ameteur-looking poorly made cable and some totally fuktarded software that he wrote, and that noone would ever want to use, except him.. He tried to peddle that crap on the AMIGA forums too, and we all told him where to shove it.. Edited February 8, 2011 by MEtalGuy66 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mirage #11 Posted February 9, 2011 Crap crap crap. I just won the auction and must have been tired and read wrong last night. What you meant to say was "bullcrap", and "I messed up in understanding". LOL [if you don't understanding what I'm saying, don't worry about it, just inside jokes I guess you could say, nothing about you. And by the way, APE rocks.] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its just a very ameteur-looking poorly made cable and some totally fuktarded software that he wrote, and that noone would ever want to use, except him.. He tried to peddle that crap on the AMIGA forums too, and we all told him where to shove it.. Twenty years ago, atariksi made a cable like that for Amiga only, but AFAIK never tried to sell it. He gave me the software for free, and explained how I could solder my own DB25 cable. Using my crappy PC's HD as an Amiga HD over the printer cable blew me away! It worked really well. In 1990, I don't think anything like it existed in the world. So when I Googled him a few years back and saw that he's.. well.. making and selling those same damn cables in 2011, and in a kinda sleazy way, I sighed. What happened to this guy? I think he graduated with a Computer Engineering degree, perfect GPA, valedictorian of his class. Now he's a petty, vindictive forum troll who sells flimsy cables from a sleazy web site?
