Re: Case/Extension Cable?

What about an adapter (ribbon) cable? You could plug that in between the Rememorizer and motherboard and then put the Rememorizer anywhere it would fit (oriented any way, as long as the cable was long enough).

Good point about the GODIL, according to Andy's site it's ~80% of the cost..

Re: What other retro machines do you have?

Hi Dave

It all lives in my study ("man cave"), and I'm out of space... :shock:

That said, I DO have space for a shiny new copy of The Source (and the original, of course...) ;)

Re: 48 line mode?

Ah ha... sneaky...

Now I need to grab an 8k EEPROM. Got loads of 32K ones here (27256 I think), but no 8K.. Can I fit a 27256 to the ASSEM socket on the board (with mods), I wonder..? Probably not.
