Rumor has it that tim lindner may have mentioned these words:
>With the SuperIDE...
I noticed this a few days ago... I have stuff to sell on ePay, and if I get
enuf spare coin from that, methinks I'll be ordering one of those... ;-)
> and the SuperBoard...
My only problem is that these have been on the drawing board *forever*[1]
and seem to have a case of feeping creaturism. It would be nice if they got
the basics for *some* of the abilities of the board down[2], locked it,
called it "SuperBoard Lite" and brought it out. Therefore, anyone not
needing the whole shebang...
I should get resubbed to the coco mailing list, tho. The spam finally drove
me away (as the old list was directly linked to bit.listserv.coco & had a
poor s/n ratio...) but if the new list is generally spamfree, it would be
nice to get back into that again...

[2] the 2MB of RAM; Pro-Tector+; and Dual Port 16C550 UARTs would be most
everything I could want; with the protector you *darned near* have a
parallel port using the bus (My main printer will print from serial
anyway... ;-) , the RTC can be had in either the SCSI or IDE interfaces,
PS/2 keyboard would be OK, I suppose; and I guess if it was Ethernet
capable would be OK for transferring files, but having "yet another
Internet box"... Besides, with the serial ports, there are "serial ->
internet" converter thingies out there...
