+OLD CS1 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 oh yes, i checked the ebay page, you're right.. price is down from 59 US$ to 29 US$ ...no luck for me it's many good games & utilities that requires ( or works better with ) 32ko RAM expansion. Disk emulation is just a question of confort, especially if you download image from internet and need to transfert to the TI Notice, though, that the $29 units have a smaller CF than the $59 units. From 32GB to something like 512MB, IIRC... I cannot find the auction again. Maybe it was 2GB, but smaller none the less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, keep in mind there is a version that comes with a RS232 port and one that comes with a parallel port. The more expensive one has the RS232.

Mirage Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 (edited) What's the use for the serial port over the parallel? I honestly don't see myself using either, but... what's the advantage? I have many CF cards around here, so the size of that doesn't matter to me. And to the person who asked about the speech synth, I plan to keep both for now.

I would rather have a serial port over parallel as it would better allow communication between TI and PC. However, with the CF card and the transfer utilities, couples with TI99Dir, this could be a moot point, anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
