Maybe you can get in contact with Jens-Eike from Germany, afaik he has Driving Demon boxed. You have his contacts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opry99er Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 I do not. Do you think he would be receptive to moving it? Having spent $55 (including shipping) on this Henhouse, it may be a couple of weeks before I'm able to make another purchase. I have a limited hobby budget. Is he on Atariage?

+acadiel Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 IIRC, and I may be mistaken, but I don't recall the Terminal Emulator II being turned into a FinalGROM image yet. I imagine some people might like that for use with their Speech Synthesizers. After seeing the SDD99 demo, I've also pondered if a card for the P-Box (or a side-car) could integrate all these things functions and calls into one "super everything" for 100% standby use in any project. Sort of like a firmware DOS that can act like the old MS/DOS or TRSDOS and load BASIC or assembly language programs and have all the extension for speech, and other stuff available too WITHOUT inserting any cartridge at all. The process to do this is currently cumbersome. What we need is for someone to code a Windows utility that can spit out some 1284 and eprom images from a cartridge input :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omega-TI Posted November 29, 2018 Author Share Posted November 29, 2018 The asking price is a little high with shipping, but the seller does have the MAKE OFFER button listed. Maybe someone can make a reasonable offer and get a << speech synthesizer >> for their TI, assuming they do not already have one, or two, or more...

Years ago, I saw a "RARE" commodore 1541 test/demo disk on eBay for a little under $500 (with shipping at $75 - maybe for the insurance.) It was even listed as unknown for working or not. A simple search, at the time, found me 20+ for less than $5 with reasonable shipping. I regularly come across, in my opinion, idiotic prices like that. The frustrating part, for me at least, is when some yahoo with more money than sense actually buys it. Then every related item on eBay immediately takes a huge price jump.

That's hardly fair.They also slapped the word APPLE on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+adamantyr Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Wow, that's a rare one... I only ever recall seeing it a few times in the Triton catalog. The single descriptive of "Looks to be in good shape" is a bit concerning though... no mention of if it's been tested at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+adamantyr Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Also, I notice there are no cables shown in the picture. The power cord looks standard at least, but how does it hook up to the console? Do we know the cable standard for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ksarul Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 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. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+OLD CS1 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Anyone want to buy original Sierra On-Line source code and port to the TI? We could finally have Leisure Suit Larry!! atariage.com/forums/topic/285530-ex-sierra-game-developer-al-lowe-is-selling-original-source-code/ Okay, not so much since the intellectual property is owned by another company.

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! Edited December 1, 2018 by iliketurtles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, is the the "European" standard cable (230 Volt, just used with 110 Volt) as I know it ? (I really have tons of them) Or is there "something special" with it ? thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
