I brought plenty of cool non-work-related hardware... my SBC-6120
w/FP-6120 and IOB-6120, a Spare Time GIzmos Embedded Elf w/disk
interface, an Elf-2000 w/STG1861, a STG mp3 player, an RB5X robot
(INS8073-based), an MC-1N microcontroller (also INS8073-based),
several LCD and VFD displays for LCDproc (http://www.lcdproc.org), a
"Real Console" 6809 board, a MicroElf, a couple of binary clocks, some
Atmel microcontrollers, and a modernish (2002) 6502 SBC. I think
that's most of the toys I brought to get through the night. I also
have Amiga Forever, simh and klh10 for emulation of various boxes (I
used to bring an Amiga down, but now it's just too large to justify).
Plenty of toys here. Now I just have to pack them up and take them home.
Ethan,
Gadzooks man! I had no idea that you were currently at such an extreme
latitude. How in the dickens did you manage to pack so much gear to take
along?
I've pretty much finished the schematic for the Cypher IV sbc. Also
pretty sure I can make a .gif copy to send along. I would appreciate any
comments you might have, as I have had to guess about some of the component
values. I'm still soldering the thing together, so it will be a few days.
Also, I did find that Unicorn Electronics has the MM58274 clock chips.....,
for $29.00 each! I'll probably (resentfully) buy one, just to fill out the
board, as I've not found anyone else that will sell single items.
I would complain about the early frost, but it I fear it would fall on
deaf ears...., stay warm.
Regards,
John Whitton
