(306)-382-5746 Lines: 14 Exactly (concerning your points of the use of the TC9 board, both with present additional boards and looking towards the future). I talked to Frank recently to, and the speedup he originally had in the TC9 was taken out since it was kinda flaky on production run boards (they could all be gotten to work, but most boards had to be tweaked). From what he was telling me, Bob Puppo designed that speedup, and originally ran it on a Coco 3, NOT a TC-9. Frank also said that Bob is considering writing an article for Rainbow on how to perform the speed-up upgrade on both the Coco 3 and the TC-9, so any 'hackers' out there that wish to do the speed up modification (which will automatically slow down for video refresh on the GIME... unlike the simple clock crystal replacement, you DON'T have to tweak your monitor syncs to run with it) should be able to do it when that article comes out. I know it is going to be one of the first things I do to my TC9 (which I should be picking up at the April Rainbowfest, since I thi nk I am #6 in line from last year's Chicago 'Fest...) -- Curtis Boyle - via FidoNet node 1:140/22 UUCP: ...!herald!weyr!Curtis.Boyle Domain: Curtis.Boyle@weyr.FIDONET.ORG Standard Disclaimers Apply...
