Tempest Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 I may have asked this before, but how hard/expensive would it be to make a clone of the Geneve card? I've always been kind of curious about it, but the few that do show up are ungodly expensive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a man overseas who was creating a Geneve using FPGA tech, but though some have said he is still working on it, it has not to my knowledge, come to fruition. That being said we have a member, Speccery in the TI-99/4A with a Pipistrello FPGA board thread, who has reproduced the TI, so I do believe with the information available that a Geneve could be implemented relatively easy.

I have been in contact with the developer of the new Geneve II. It is still in development and it is FPGA based. Hopefully some tracking will happen this year. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
