- FO 08:21 PM Developer: RE: Relocate that cartridge slot - Cartridge slot extender available to order.
- Do you know how to use Eagle? The free version is good enough and its not that hard. You could load the existing sub-board as a base schematic. Then order somewhere like this: http://dirtypcbs.com/store/pcbs

- Bits of the Past just put a cartridge slot extender up for sale to relocate that cartridge slot from the daughter card... $35 plus shipping...
Also a version including a cartridge guide to deal with those pesky brown Atari cartridges ru...

- FO 09:35 PM Developer: RE: USB AB Connector
- By mistake, the pin should be removed.
- The internal USB connector has all the pins wired but most USB panel connectors have the last pin in the bottom row physically blocked off. Just wondering why there is a pin there on the internal connector?
Thanks - SA 04:42 AM Developer: RE: On Off Controller by Maxim
- Yes I think that using these two ic's we cover both cases.

- FO 08:01 AM Developer: RE: Atari 400-style key caps just back from WASD!
- I need to do something about the firmware soon, there are about 4 bytes free! Of course we have plenty of resources but it needs some work to map more ram or further restructure the support CPU and firmware. More buttons are after that...

- FO 07:58 AM Developer: RE: On Off Controller by Maxim
- So we'd have this instead of the toggle switch? Then a tps63002 for the stable 5V?
Guess it would be good to have main button on/off, though I do like the toggle:) - On Off Controller by Maxim, which can be used as on off switch, using a momentary switch. This can be handle a relay and control the 5volt input to the rest pcb circuit, or to control all three "enable" inputs of LDO regulators.

- Excellent job! Although I like very much the key-caps, I would prefer a more chocolate version for the main keyboard!
Please inform us when they are ready to order!! - JO 09:13 AM Developer: RE: Atari 400-style key caps just back from WASD!
- It won't be an issue, once the keyboard layout in Eclaire can be configured.

- What about that one? That's a PC keyboard, mine is designed specifically for the EclaireXL keyboard layout.
- JO 12:40 PM Developer: RE: Atari 400-style key caps just back from WASD!
- This is the correct one.
- JO 12:40 PM Developer: RE: Atari 400-style key caps just back from WASD!
- Sorry, wrong image :(
- JO 12:40 PM Developer: RE: Atari 400-style key caps just back from WASD!

- Backlit too. Your one looks far better than the one on Amazon!
- 91 05:20 PM Developer: RE: Atari 400-style key caps just back from WASD!
- Thanks. The actual keyboard is a Velocifire TKL-01, it runs about $30 from Amazon. It is painted using Krylon camouflage Khaki spray paint.
- FO 07:02 AM Developer: RE: Atari 400-style key caps just back from WASD!
- Cool! That looks amazing:)
What is the keyboard that you fitted the keycaps too? Seems to match the 800 case. - Here is a couple of pictures of my key caps based on the Atari 400. I just received them today from WASD...

- FO 11:39 AM Developer: RE: new video uploaded
- HDMI, dvi and vga mode are 50Hz (HDMI is picky) other modes are 49.86Hz like the Atari. Nir tell me it's still faster though so not sure why!
For ntsc it's 59.94Hz and 59.92Hz iirc. - XX 10:41 AM Developer: RE: new video uploaded
- It seems to me that at the beginning Eclair is a little bit late but at the end of demo is ahead of the atari.

- FO 04:25 PM Developer: RE: How to check core version?
- I guess I can include svn revision, though will need to find some bytes in the firmware:-) & commit code first!
- XX 01:47 PM Developer: RE: How to check core version?
- Please add such information on the settings screen.
- RO 10:13 AM Developer: RE: new video uploaded
- Great Video nir... If I had your Video talents I would never have time for my Atari 8bits.
