The CoCo mailing list (was: 6809)

Rumor has it that tim lindner may have mentioned these words: I noticed this a few days ago... I have stuff to sell on ePay, and if I get enuf spare coin from that, methinks I'll be ordering one of those... ;-) My only problem is that these have been on the drawing board *forever*[1] and seem to have a case of feeping creaturism. It would be nice if they got the basics for *some* of the abilities of the board down[2], locked it, called it "SuperBoard Lite" and brought it out. Therefore, anyone not needing the whole shebang... I should get resubbed to the coco mailing list, tho. The spam finally drove me away (as the old list was directly linked to bit.listserv.coco & had a poor s/n ratio...) but if the new list is generally spamfree, it would be nice to get back into that again... Laterz, Roger "Merch" Merchberger [1] as in -> Duke Nukem Forever... [2] the 2MB of RAM; Pro-Tector+; and Dual Port 16C550 UARTs would be most everything I could want; with the protector you *darned near* have a parallel port using the bus (My main printer will print from serial anyway... ;-) , the RTC can be had in either the SCSI or IDE interfaces, PS/2 keyboard would be OK, I suppose; and I guess if it was Ethernet capable would be OK for transferring files, but having "yet another Internet box"... Besides, with the serial ports, there are "serial -> internet" converter thingies out there... -- Roger "Merch" Merchberger --- sysadmin, Iceberg Computers Recycling is good, right??? Randomization is better!!! If at first you don't succeed, nuclear warhead disarmament should *not* be your first career choice.
