Dave. I have a couple if Minervas, in fact I at one time assembled the PCB's for TF Services! Probably still have some bare boards down in the shed! I will dig some stuff out sometime. In the attic is a modified QL that I literally cut off the Right hand section (mdv area) completely with a bandsaw! It still works, just has a bit of video circuitry on a small veroboard. That was done to fit it into a particular case I seem to recall.Dave wrote:That rectangular one? The guy who designed it tried to sell me one. But it was big, and wouldn't fit in my QL case!
If we get you hooked up with Minerva and a modern storage system that uses SD cards, would you pull them out and use them again? You might also need a keyboard membrane.
I'm one of the three active hardware makers. If you have anything interesting that I could produce, I'm always listening.
Certainly raised eyebrows at the time!
