Bill R Sullivan Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 I'm guessing it's a large magnifying glass? Is that a tablet or similar device used as a TI-99/4A monitor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ksarul Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 it is a backup camera monitor, Bill. They work surprisingly well. . . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never heard of it, but sounds nice. I just don't have time to follow everything I see here that looks interesting. Maybe late next year. Thanks.

Currently I'm only using my F18A powered TI-99/4A w/USB WIFI keyboard VIA a K/V/M shared with two Dell laptops and a Dell mid-tower providing TI support (HDX, DIR & Printer). Oh, yeah, a NanoPEB F18 V1 provides the connectivity. RetroBill (fdos) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omega-TI Posted November 27, 2020 Author Share Posted November 27, 2020 The << Argon One case >> with a USB wireless keyboard is another option that can keep you unencumbered from wires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand, different strokes for different folks. To me though, that configuration would force me into being tethered to one spot with the power, cord, video cable and everything hanging off the back side. With the Argon One case I'm free to move about with a lightweight keyboard. Of course there are also KODI users that need no keyboard at all!

Omega-TI Posted December 4, 2020 Author Share Posted December 4, 2020 Saw this on eBay today, and it gave me a good laugh, so I thought I'd share it... I dunno but with two modulators and a switcher for one TI, it makes you wonder if the thing has video issues, regardless of the LED 'coming on'. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am posting with mine right now. I am amazed at this little thing. 1.8GHz ARM quad core. What?! I woke it up without a hitch. It has everything I could imagine needing including Libre Office. I can't get over how complete it is. I will explore Linux with it for my own education. At the current price it is hard to beat. I will have to figure out how to GForth on here. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+TheBF Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 I used the raspberry PI web site and an OP had posted all the secret incantations there so you just copied and pasted from your browser. It's running on mine now too. With the magic spells it was painless. Without help I would probably never figure it out. How to install Gforth from source to get the latest version! - Raspberry Pi Forums 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
