Re: Get yourself a bargain (not) - £800 for an untested QL
Anyone who buys off of AliExpress ever go 5 or 6 pages deep and find $5 items for like over $1,000? What is going on there? I had to replace a mini AV-to-VGA converter that you can get for about $4, and I was trying to fit things into a "$10 and get free shipping" window and kept looking ...

Re: Get yourself a bargain (not) - £800 for an untested QL
Could be my attempt at selling my QL stuff when the best wife of all asks me to get rid of some of my old computer crap. "well, I tried!"

Re: Floppy problemsve.
Actually, a floppy drive connected to the controller, even if connected the wrong way round, shouldn't prevent the QL from starting. Maybe the PSU has aged and has problems providing the Amps properly?
Re: PiStorm
Stupid question, but how is an emulated processor on a real QL going to be better than an emulated processor in sQLux or similar? Since the emulated Io is superior to genuine IO in every way, couldn't we just make a QL-fitting carrier board for a CM4 for the QL case? That question is very valid, bu...

Re: QLTerminal v2.35 with TheOldNet WiFi v4
If you disconnect the far end of the cable, are characters still echoed? Then your cable is likely to have a short between TX and RX

Re: HxC floppy emulator
I stand corrected. Mine only provides numbers. Apparently there's a version for newer Goteks.
I forgot to mention: The HxC firmware costs 10€ (which it is well worth), while the FF firmware is free (which makes it an even better bargain).

Re: HxC floppy emulator
Does anyone have any knowledge about the HxC floppy emulator on the QL, it works like the Vdrive on a sd-card but you can hook up like a floppie drive. Well, you obviously need a floppy controller card for an HxC drive, and otherwise, the HxC behaves just like a physical floppy. Today, however, HxC...

Re: George Gwilt's Programs
Hi Norman,
good idea to make the files public available again. Thanks!
I can't access the Github page without forking (and I think that would defeat the purpose), so sent you an e-mail with a link to all the files I downloaded like a year ago when George's pages were still up.
Thanks,
Tobias

How to run QPC2 in Wine/Crossover on Apple Silicon Macs
Just to have this documented somewhere: In case you want to run QPC2 v5 on an Apple Silicon Mac, you have to tweak the emulation a bit to get proper keyboard shortcuts. The default settings will not allow you to enter <ALT> key combinations using the "Option" key. QPC2 V5 wants a specific ...
