Seeking Vectrix programming info. - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

28 Jul 2002

...
  Someone near where I live is selling a Vectrix for a
decent price and while it
 would be OK as is... I programmed a vector graphics machine (Imlac) in my
 near-childhood (at 19) and it would be wonderful to be able to do that again. 
...
  Does anybody remember seeing information on the
instruction set of a Vectrix?
 It was closed architecture for a while but it should be publishable by now*. 
Do you mean Vectrex? The cartridge based vector video game made by CGE. Then
sold to Milton Bradley?

Try usenet: rec.games.vectrex. It is a very active newsgroup. Both for
players and programmers.

There are (RS-232 based) RAM carts avaiable. That makes testing much faster.
