Tatung Computer Forum

I've been archiving some 3" floppy disks from Mike Follin, a friend and ex-colleague at Software Creations. We used Einsteins as our dev system. One of the disks appears to have the source code for MOS 1.2 on it. I don't know where this originated from, whether it is from the developers or someone ...

EinTrans200 was written by Ste Ruddy, then a colleague at Software Creations. I used it a few times back then to transfer some of my source files to a PC, as we were in the process of using them for software development. Anyway, I've reverse engineered the Tatung Einstein component, and am in the ...

Hi all,

I'm looking for a full list of the Z80 I/O ports on the TC-01. Anyone know where I can find one. I've come up blank so far on the Internet searches.

Thank you for this! Finally got around to fitting a Gotek in my Einstein this afternoon. I needed more disk capacity as I was trying to assemble some old games files for the ZX Spectrum and the source code spanned both sides of the disk. Normally these source files would be copied from Side A and B ...

Here it is in action at The Centre for Computing History in Cambridge last weekend. Used it to assemble one of Mike Follin's source disks and get an early Magnum Lightgun proof of concept demo up and running.

Ah grand. In which case I'll try that first. At ease everyone!

Does the creator still make them? Maybe if we can get a bunch of people to order them he'll do a run, his last post was may this year so he's still around. Or if not, is there enough info on his blog to recreate them (if it's opensource). I don't know much about electronics but gonna read over his ...

Hi,

Pretty much what the subject says - am looking for one or the other, working, for a reasonable price...

There's a bit more information in my Git, including the schematic - I'll be posting the source for the Tatung editor/assemblers for Z80 and 6502 there at some point over the next month or so when I get time.

How did you do 6502 cross dev? Was the assembler written in house (I haven't seen one around) or was it via CPM? Are you going to show us a C64 link? The assemblers were written in house by Mike Webb initially. I'm going to work on the C64 link after RetroFest 2024 when I've got a bit more spare ...
