  1. Also should be noted that originally only wds1, wds2, wds3 existed for Myarc hdfc. Whereas SCSI allows up to 7 devices.
  2. Yes, better to use a different set of addresses unless you add hardware in the 4a console to limit the address decode range, or remove the tms9919 chip totally inside the console and just jumper the audio in to audio out. Would be good if @JasonACT shares the forti software he has well, I been looking around for it as well.
  3. Well, I guess drunk drivers will increase, or the old taxi companies will finally be back hanging outside of nightclubs and bars at 2am.
  4. I guess it depends on the software, some were written only for wds from the Myarc hdfc days. I think scs was added do you could have both a Myarc hdfc and SCSI card in the same peb, I have both but haven't try that yet, as I don't have any mfm hard drives or emulator device.
  5. Might be better to try emulate the sid blaster instead if possible to allow for better sound effects and music instead of the forti design.
  6. 50 years later and I still don’t really understand what the fuck Sea Monkeys were.
  7. Would be a lot quicker as it is doubling each time. 1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024 so I would say about a minute or two at most.
  8. The CC40 uses Radix100 as well, infact the manuals for CC40 go into more detail than the 4a ones
  9. Weather here in Canada is slowly shifting seasons. When I was a kid ot always snowed before Halloween. Now it doesn't snow until after New Year's, and March is the coldest winter month instead of January. And infact we end up with more snowfall after it officially turns spring then all the previous official winter months, which pushes the remaining seasons down as well with summer not starting in July but instead September and October being the hottest months. I got spoiled living in Dominican Republic for ten years there the season is 28c year around with the sun coming up at 7am and setting at 7pm. But the only issue is the rainfall is more compacted to shorter but heavier rainy season with bigger floods and more months of dry weather. Oceans are about the same not really any increase in height, no less land but the amount of plastic garbage washing up on the shoreline and beaches has increased ten-fold.
  10. The new crack... smoking fibre optic cables... https://www.citizen.co.za/news/south-africa/crime/fibre-cable-theft-smoking-drugs-nyaope/
  11. It does look like a microphone. Maybe a streaming podcast from bed? There is one in fact were they do interviews with the host and guest together in big king size bed.
  12. Yeah, I briefly read that back a decade ago but never tried. But looks interesting a glitch to break out of basic
  13. and only use ti basic and tape! and no 32k! (mini-memory is allowed at least, so you have peek/poke/load and 4k for assembly) only way it would be possible!
  14. no more for badges for that, unless using a GPS counts!
  15. for me sitting in the backseat, i could not read anything, i would get motion sickness, front seat was ok, so looking out the window was best for me.
  16. i used to play car bingo. i had a board with sliders on it, and when a car pass us by, would try to match the first letter and last two numbers to the spot on bingo card. then later on when i got a bit order i was the map reader for my day (no gps), and he always got lost. and finally when i had kids myself in the backseat i installed a gamecube with small lcd screen, the gamecube was great for installation as it ran off 12volt dc natively, so easy to wire in.
  17. If you trace out the PCboard signals and the 138, most likely the ram chip mapped to the 2000 space.
  18. here you go: https://archive.org/download/word-perfect-6.0-and-6.0a-for-windows-6.0-6.0a-1994-10-1994-04-english-3.5-1.44-mb
