I have a
couple of Acorn Systems (one 6502, the other 6809-based). I am
always looking for any of the more unusual I/O cards for them....
OK, refresh my memory here... what Acorn 6809 system would that be?
I was only aware of two - one by Brian Jones which was a large hand-
made breadboarded circuit he did as an experiment, and which ran FLEX,
Mine runs Flex....
Other obscure Acorn kit that I have: the
"Prophet" - a version of
the Atom targetted at businesses. Never seen a single mention of
Interesting. Never heard of that one...
Some day I'll photograph my acorn goodies and let
you know
what's available. Any cards I can put in a padded envelope
Let me know what 'spare' cards you have, then :-)....
PS My main 'beeb' project before I transferred
to VLSI CAD was
the Teletext adapter. I found the source code recently if anyone
wants it. I can't see Acorn giving me a hard time over
releasing it after all these years...
I'd be interested in seeing it sometime. I don't have the teletext
adapter (yet!), but I do have the schematics and loads of SAA50x0 series
chips so I could always have a go at making one...
