LK1,LK2,LK3 are optional links on the CPC mainboard, connected to PPI Port B, Bit1-3. The links select the distributor name (which is displayed by the BIOS in the boot message).

 

These LKs exist on all CPC mainboards. By default, LK1-LK3 are not installed (Amstrad). Other combinations are LK2 installed in german Schneider models, and LK1+LK2 in australian Awa models.

Mostra "VINTAGE COMPUTERS" Museo Itinerante Apulia Retrocomputing.

L'annunciata collaborazione con l'Istituto Tecnico Tecnologico "Modesto Panetti" di Bari dà vita ad un primo esperimento consistente nella esposizione di retrocomputers e retroconsoles il giorno 19 gennaio 2014.

The UPURS suite provides a set of tools for the transfer of data to and from the BBC Micro series of computers using a high speed serial link.

 

The high speed serial link is implemented using a custom cable designed to connect to the BBC Micro computers’ User Port, presenting a standard 9-pin serial plug to the external system.

The following text was taken from www.retro-kit.co.uk/page.cfm/content/IFEL-ROMRAM-Cartridg...

 

The IFEL ROM/RAM Cartridge for Acorn BBC Master is a cartridge that fits into an available cartridge slot on the Acorn BBC Master and provides 8 selectable ROM images making them available to the computer in banks of 2.

 

The two switches on the far left of the board are used to select the different ROM/RAM banks available having four possible combinations.

 

The third switch from the left marked as TWP provides a TOTAL WRITE PROTECT feature protecting any Sideways RAM banks being overwritten.

 

The fourth switch along is marked as PWP and provides a PARTIAL WRITE PROTECT by only write protecting the odd numbered Sideways RAM banks.

 

The fifth switch, marked INH, inhibits the RAM on the board from being read or written. This is useful if a ROM has become corrupt or is faulty and the Master has locked up due to the corruption or fault.

 

The final switch on the right hand side of the board is then used to disable or enable the ROM socket pictured below the switch. When a ROM or EPROM is fitted, it can therefore be turned on and off as required.

The Nintendo NAS contains the following hardware. (Don't worry - this NES had a dodgy CPU and wasnt working. No NESs were hardmed)

 

CV860A Motherboard with onboard Via Eden C3 at 800Mhz

512 Mb RAM

400Gb 3.5″ IDE Hard disk.

3 * 100MB Lan connections

 

The LEDs on the front panel indicate power, disk activity and LAN activity. The power button turns the NAS on (funny that!) The reset button is not connected.

 

I’ve not put a CDROM drive inside the unit that utilises the cartridge flap on the front. Ive mounted the hard drive behind it instead.

 

The plan was to install FreeNAS, but I’ve now decided to put Ubuntu server 9.10 32 bit on instead. I can then put a full Apache/MySQL installation on it and publish its website to the internet. I will put a guest book system on it, so visitors can sigh the log. Keep an eye on nintendonas.retrocomputers.eu . I should have the site live by the new year.

8BASIC (C) is a BASIC interpreter developed by manufacturer G.G in 2010 for the homemade Z80/AM95 8 bit NANO COMPUTER.

  

STATEMENTS

 

8BASIC consists of 51 fixed-format statements.

 

During editing you can change any of the 26 letters of each variable in any of the 51 statements.

 

1 "IF A>B:N" ; jump to line label N if A is greater than B

2 "IF A=B:N" ; jump to line label N if A is equal to B

3 "IFAB:N" ; jump to line label N if A is not equal to B

4 "IFA>=B:N" ; jump to line label N if A is greater than or equal to B

5 " "N": " ; line label N marking the destination of a GoTo/GoSub statement

6 "GO TO N " ; jump unconditionally to line label N

7 "GO SUB N" ; temporarily jump to line label N and returning to the following line

8 "RETURN " ; jump back to the statement following the original GOSUB statement

9 " END " ; terminate the execution of the program and suspends CPU operation

10 "Z=X+Y " ; add X and Y and assign the result to Z

11 "Z=X-Y " ; subtract Y from X and assign the result to Z

12 "Z=X*Y " ; multiply X and Y and assign the result to Z

13 "Z=X/Y " ; divide X by Y and assign the result to Z

14 "Z=SQR(X)" ; assign to Z the square root of X

15 "Z=INT(X)" ; assign to Z the integer of X

16 "Z=ABS(X)" ; assign to Z the absolute value of X

17 "Z=NEG(X)" ; assign to Z the value of X and change sign of Z

18 "Z=SGN(X)" ; assign to Z the sign function of X

19 "Z= (X)^Y" ; assign to Z the result of X raised to the power of Y

20 "Z=EXP(X)" ; assign to Z the result of e raised to the power of X

8BASIC (C) is a BASIC interpreter developed by manufacturer G.G in 2010 for the homemade Z80/AM95 8 bit NANO COMPUTER.

 

Due to the strong mathematical support of the AM9511 processor, the interpreter offers floating-point arithmetic and is just hold in 3KB of EPROM memory.

 

The most interesting feature of the 8BASIC is that each statement is eight characters fixed-length, which exactly fits the computer's LED display.
