As I recall, The Craigs List post, claimed that everyone who came to check-it-out, would receive a FREE 3TB, hard drive. The other stuff for which they wanted to take $$$ offers. But, it was posted in FREE STUFF, as well as COMPUTERS, categories. The post seemed oddly esoteric! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary from OPA Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 (edited) Not directly, a TI99 item, but it is the rare stringy floppy device that was licensed by Texas Instruments to become the hexbus waferdrive that was going to be on the 99/2 and CC40 so this item might be useful in the right hands. -- it's going to be a bidding war... https://www.ebay.ca/itm/326236828443 Edited August 18 by Gary from OPA better pictures & spelling 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks to me like a mini memory with a second 8k chip stacked on it with a switch. There should be old articles in MicroPendium how to make one.

I believe mine was based on an Editor Assembler grom? I just never saw several of those program selections. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are the menu selections from supercart utilities disk 1 and 2 which he includes with the cartridge. These disks should be archived someplace on whtech by now. Various users groups had them back in the day. Also looking at this auction again, it looks like it has the EA grom in it instead of the mini memory one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary from OPA Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 We have a rare Corcomp 256k Ramdisk up for sale it seems. With sockets so easy to expand to 512k as well. Plus, if you lucky enough to already own one, you can run two in one PEB. https://www.ebay.ca/itm/405180807858 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have two, and after I get them fully operational, would like to try that, never knew it was possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All info should be on whtech, if not I will send you the manuals and dsrs, I got all the originals here, just need to scan them in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just never knew that two could be used in one system before. Thought that since the OS was caught by the corcomp card that there would be conflict.

Thought that since the OS was caught by the corcomp card that there would be conflict. Normally, having two cards that act as 32k memory expansion can't be used together, but Corcomp design allows for whole card to be shut off, so when the second one at 1400 gets called it temporarily disables the active 32k one at 1000. Unlike the myarc design it can't be disabled without a hardware modification, which would be nice to do at some point, as I love to use my Myarc along with my Corcomp together. Have to add that to me todo list. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickyDean Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 That's probably a better price for that, than 500 for the ramdisk. Still seems to be a bit high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything seems high these days. HOWEVER, roughly 2018 somebody offered me one for $25 at a VCF but I didn't have any cash on me. By the time I got back to him it was gone. Many's the day I kick myself for not remembering in the moment that paypal and venmo exist. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
