Re: Reverse engineering rare hardware
Here's my position: I would love to do something SD-card based, but my understanding was that the system wasn't reliable on every system.

Re: Reverse engineering rare hardware
The possibility of making more romdisqs does exist - if Tony Firshman is interested. That said, his design does use the very smallest flash chips that are near-impossible to solder by hand. I would have used a larger flash package and made the PCB 5mm wider just to make them much easier to assemble,...

Re: Reverse engineering rare hardware
I'm confident a short run of low cost floppy interfaces with 512K of RAM will surface in the next few months from one source or another - there is sufficient demand.

Re: Reverse engineering rare hardware
I think it ceases to be a QL when it ceases to run QL Pawn ;) More seriously though... In a real sense the board I'm playing with is a real QL.
