ZuluGula #1 Posted January 18, 2019 (edited) There's a talk on atari.area forum http://www.atari.org.pl/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=246635#p246635 about producing new Dragon Ethernet cartridge http://www.atari8ethernet.com Duddie from http://retronics.eu/ said, that he can start making them after he get customers for 50 cartridges. Estimated price is $60 plus shipping. We have a list going over there to gauge interest (currently 10 carts are claimed). I would like to start the same here. So if you are interested in one or more, please add yourself to the list. Let's get this project started. Thank You. Please copy the list and add yourself to the end with a quantity you want. Here's a proposed format: 1. YourForumNickname - 1 cart(s) 2. .... Edited January 18, 2019 by ZuluGula 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+davidcalgary29 #2 Posted January 18, 2019 I already have one, but I'd buy another. 1. davidcalgary29 -- 1 cart Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZuluGula #3 Posted January 18, 2019 davidcalgary29, please start the new list here and don't mix them between two forums. This will confuse many people. Duddie can combine them later. The list should look like this: 1. davidcalgary29 - 1 cart Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+davidcalgary29 #4 Posted January 18, 2019 Done! Have any new programs been coded to take advantage of Dragon Cart? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Philsan #5 Posted January 18, 2019 I am glad a new run of Dragon Cart would be made, to play amazing 8bit-Slicks online (it works perfectly) and forthcoming Worms type game. Will the new cart be exactly as original one or will it have some enhancements? For example, top plug for lan cable is not very nice with XL computers. I already have one Dragon Cart and I would buy another one if it's better than original. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mathy #11 Posted January 18, 2019 Hello guys Will the new cart be exactly as original one or will it have some enhancements? Wasn't the first version some PCB stuck to a cartridge PCB? I too would like to know if the new Dragon Cart will be a 1:1 copy of the old one or if it will be redesigned. Sincerely Mathy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheNameOfTheGame #16 Posted January 19, 2019 I have a SIDE2 cart and U1MB upgrade so my cart slot is occupied. I think it would be good to be able to have a driver loaded in RAM and have some other way to wire an ethernet jack to the computer. Would that even be possible?

_The Doctor__ #17 Posted January 19, 2019 a dual eci/pbi dual cart slot board might work.... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZuluGula #18 Posted January 19, 2019 For this you have 850 inteface plus Lantronix serial to Ethernet device. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheNameOfTheGame #19 Posted January 19, 2019 (edited) For this you have 850 inteface plus Lantronix serial to Ethernet device. Yes, I have this, but isn't the dragoncart TCP/IP stack better? Would be useful to have this available with the extra memory of the U1MB without taking up the cartridge slot.

+Stephen #21 Posted January 19, 2019 I really hate to be the turd in the punch bowl. I have an original Dragon cart. Cool concept. I hate to say it. I really would love to see an ECI (PBI) device where the microcontroller offloaded the TCP/IP stack and other shit the 6502 just doesn't need to be saddled with doing. Also, the Atari 8-bit port of contiki (that I have seen) is just shit compared to what is out there. Slow ass 40 column "browser" that can do a nice 300 baud. Uses none of the Atari features. Compare to Ice-T XE's blazing fast 9600 baud 80 column browser with limited colour support and a full 16kB scrolling buffer. Sorry to be "negative nancy". Just taking the shit for stating a somewhat common (but withheld) opinion, or wishing for something better. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
