is it possible to fully populate a PEB?

[tater1337]

just wondering if anyone was able to and for what reasons

or if anyone wished there was a PEB expander box?

[+OLD CS1]

Yes, and one exists, already, in a sense, by way of a side-port splitter.

[apersson850]

My expansion box is full now.

1. Interface card
2. RS 232 card
3. 32 K RAM expansion card
4. P-code card
5. Real-time clock card
6. I/O card
7. RAMdisk card
8. Disk drive controller card

I'm pretty close:

 

1) Interface

2) 32k

3) RAMDisk

4) RS232

5) SidMaster

6) CC TripleTech

7) **Empty**

CC FDC

 

 

I still have one slot open. I could put my IEEE card in there, but I have no need for it.

I'm close with a Geneve System:

 

Geneve 9640

Memex Memory Expansion

TIPI (takes 2 slots with PI mounted on card)

RS232

Myarc FDC

Myarc HFDC

 

I would add a Rave Speech card if I had one.

I've had full PEB's in the past and made my own expansion cable in the past to add another backplane in a tower. The pic for the cable is here on atariage somewhere.

I actually have one less card in my P-Box than a year ago and a lot less of a mess with cables.

 

 

 

My P-Box Card Configuration

 

1) Flex Card Interface

2) --- --- --- Empty --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

3) 1024K SAMS's Memory Expansion

4) --- --- --- Empty --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

7) CorComp Triple Tech Card (Speech/Real Time Clock)

TI Floppy Disk Controller (80 Track Mod)

 

Since I got the P-Box TIPI, I've removed both RS-232 cards, one of which was an HDX which leaves me with three extra slots and no idea what to use them for.

[atrax27407]

I have a full P-Box (with a couple other cards that I can add to a second P-Box)

 

1 - Flec Caed

 

2 - AVPC 80-Column Card

 

3 - SNUG HSGPL Card

 

4 - Rave Speech Card

 

5 - 1 Meg SAMS Card

 

6 - SNUG HRD-16 (3 m3g) Card

 

7 - TI RS232 Card

 

8 - SNUG BWG (DSDD plus clock)

 

Horizon 1.5 Meg RAMdisk

I know there are a couple of Ti'ers or so that have hooked up 2 PEB's in order to get even more expansion slots. Now that's dedication!

[atrax27407]

I ran two P-Boxes for a couple of years

[budz2355]

1.) RS 232

2.) SAMS 1MEG

3.) Horizon RAMDisk 356? Expandable to 1MEG

4.) TI Disk Controller

5.) CorComp Triple Tech

 

Any suggestions?

 

Already have 5.25 and 3.5 disk drives, and f18a for 80 column, 3 cart widget, flashrom 99 (not final grom), 3rd party joysticks (two in the single port with splitter), TI branded tape player for tape games, mini memory cart, ad device (cant remember the name, but its plugged into my rsr232 so I can connect to internet with wired ethernet connection and timxt)

I'd definitely get a P-Box TIPI, with a RPi 3B plus, then obtain a FinalGROM and run the new Force Command DOS.

Sound like a UDS-10. With the TIPI and RPi attached (as mentioned in my previous post), you'll be able to to Log into the BBS, use the fancy new version of Stuart's Internet browser, and more via WiFi!!

 

 

You'll eliminate a ton of wires, cables, and life will be so much easier... with only ONE cable leading to the RPi for power. Oh yeah, you'll also be able to use a mouse and have GIGABYTES of storage space and easily transfer files to or from your TIPI via drag and drop or via your PC's browser.

 

I was able to eliminate ALL of this...
