I'm not quite sure what the problem was, for when I did get it working it was in a rush for a Computer History Museum event, but I think it boiled down to dirty contacts on everything. I unseated and re-seated all the modules and it finally came up. There might've been some other factor that I'm unaware of but I guess I'll find out the next time I try to fire one up. BTW, when I was in Japan at the National Science Museum, they had on loan the original "Brown Box" prototype of the Odyssey. They actually had it turned on and connected to a television, and it was still working! For an under $200 video game system in 1972 it certainly was! -- Sellam Ismail Vintage Computer Festival ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ International Man of Intrigue and Danger http://www.vintage.org [ Old computing resources for business || Buy/Sell/Trade Vintage Computers ] [ and academia at www.VintageTech.com || at http://marketplace.vintage.org ]
