Love C-16 have many of those in a serious manner

by

I really have done a lot with my C-16, electronics supplements and software in the 1980´ies, but did get burned out, as an cell.phone-developer. So it has been a while since last. In my cellar is about 106 pcs. C-16´s ... I and was trying to do a lot of serious controlling of developement industry circuits with that computer. A few was sold. Now many years of beeing almoust an outsider, i Want Back. C-16 is a fine mashine for doing that "simple work" = "great work". Nowadays all PC;s are to complicated,too fast, and does not even always contain any ports for simple things. If someone has ideas, i am willing to fulfill those, if a company ... i´ll charge of cause.
But now i Would like to get some contacts with someone not beeing "game-fans" , which I´m not.
I am 47 years old and an engineer in electronics. Is there out somewhere an other, who is interested sharing information about the commodore-16 ?
I have developed a cartridge RAM-card and an I/O- card, and expanded the memory from 16K to 64K. I have written software to do use of my developement.

plz read: a msg to all from rtdos

by

My rtdos account (rtdos@yahoo.com) on yahoo (and the groups I had) no longer exist. This includes my webpage. :-(

Apparently they got to me before I could shove it up their arse. Anyways I will be looking for a new place for my website and will let every one know in due time (this time not until it is ready for public consumption).

My new webpage will somehow be dedicated to rtdos and the many classic systems as well as a tie in with my groups on MSN (unless I can find a good website / chatsite combo package really really cheap).

Take care guys and have fun...


(I think I'll get back to lurking now)

Mr. Micro Ltd

by

Mr. Micro Ltd was based in Swinton, Manchester, England.

I wrote a few games (1980-1982) "The Great Balloon Race", "Gold Rush", and some other games and utilities.

It was started in a flat above a shop in Partington, Lane, Swinton.

The founder was Jim Gregory.

I wish we hadn't parted company in 1982, I could have been rich by now!

Screen Save

by

Anyone remember a program called "Screen Save" that was used for saving code on a C16/+4 in a compressed "Novaload" like way?

As I remember you would load a game then reset the computer to the monitor. Then load the "Screen Save" program from tape.

The clever thing was it loaded to the colour map 0x0800 and lower screen map 0x0C00 so would not touch any of the actual RAM used by the program/game. I think you would then do something like G800,1000,3FFF to run "Screen Save" and save the memory in the compressed format on tape.

Anyone remember or am I just rambling?

C64 Expansion Devices Compatible with +4?

by

Anyone know anything about the compatibility of the expansion port on the +4 and the C64?

I'm just curious about things like the SuperCPU and the IDE Hard Drive interface that has recently been designed for the C64.

I've been toying with a Database program for the +4, and a HD with faster disk access would really make something like that really useful!

Just wondering...

Plus/4 Expansion Port

by James C

Most hard drives for the 64/128 plug into the CARTRIDGE port, at least here in the States.... and that's a 44 pin connector. The Plus/4 and 16 use a 50 pin cartridge connector.

And although Commodore claimed when the Plus/4 came out that the USER port is the same as the 64, there are a couple of pins that have to be swapped if you want the Plus/4's ACIA to detect things correctly. (offhand I don't remember which pins these are, sorry)
