I'm still on; just been travelling, getting over jet lag, and then hit with computer problems (sad laptop battery; sad laptop with DNS issues).

Plan is to see what I can help with (MGC, the games archive website) if I've not left any of those too late.

See you this weekend.

A few hours ago I got back from driving around Warwickshire, Worcestershire and Wor..Leciestershire in a baking oven. A few cups of tea and a tub of ice cream, and I'm going to get some kit ready to go over to Halifax tomorrow.

[jbnbeeb]

I'll be bringing:
Master 128 - with it's intriguing display corruption that only shows up on Tricky's games (even though everyone elses Masters display ok)
BBC B
CUB monitor
Laptop + LCD screen
Matchbox co-pro

..and my latest minor update to my Tequila Worm work-in-progress game. You've no idea how much I've been pulling my hair out re the intricacies of a hardware-scrolled double buffered screen this week

[danielj]

I'll be along Saturday Morning by 9. If there's no table for me, I'll be having words

Will bring MDFS, cabling, sockets and clock, master+copro, monitor, riscpc, soldering gubbins, world's supply of kynar to see if I can't get this riscpc motherboard back in the land of the living... Better bring some flux and IPA too. Also, scope, multimeter, xilinx programmer and kryoflux.

And a transit.

Is anyone fetching an eprom ERASER?

Yes, I have a Ground Control UVIPAC packed. Not great, but will erase a few EPROMS.

I've packed the two Electron IDE interfaces that you wanted to look at.

That reminds me - is anybody taking a User Port MMC interface with them? I want to see if I can get MMC-ADFS to recognise if it is absent.

I'd love to see some captions, if you (or anyone) can be bothered, to put some faces to names.

[Arcadian]

Hi, we're all at the curry joint at the moment but I'll endeavor to add some captions etc soon.

[BigEd]

Much appreciated!

[flaxcottage]

Just got home so that I can see something of my daughters who came home this weekend.

It has been a great meet with lots going on, some of which I actually understood!

[Arcadian]

Captions added - I trust they are to your satisfaction

[BigEd]

Very much so - thanks!

Now we just need to know who the lady in green and the chap with all the medals are.

Thanks to Ian's Econetted Atom I was able to finally get the Atom support working in SoftMDFS. The Atom NFS is so primitive it asks the server for the catalog header in plain text, a function not supported in any file server after Level 1 - until now!
