Interesting Items / Stuff long forgotten
Posted: Mon Nov 11, 2019 9:49 am
Currently reading through some old Tattie mags, and in Tatung User Vol 3 Issue 2 Page 32. A company called Computer Clearways was reportedly working on a Tatung upgrade card featuring an Hitachi 64180 and 512k ram. They hoped to feature it in the next issue.
In the next issue, there is mention of a Super Six upgrade that has redesigned to fit into the PIPE. Providing two modes of operation:
Mode 1 bank switched cp/m system. each section being 64k, with it's own dos and mos. So I guess you can have loads of different things running and switch between each block?
Mode 2 has one OS.
Optional extras, battery backed RTC, Dual processor interface, pipe extender sockets, 1mb ram, 19 bit hardware bus monitor.
Anyone else seen any cool stuff, now long forgotten?
