Lower ROM Board

[Bryce]

I only ordered 15 boards, at the time only 8 people said they definitely wanted one. So I could only order some prototype boards. Those 15 are gone.

Getting back to the Spectrum device: The difference between the Spectrum and the CPC is that the CPC Firmware is actually very well written. The Spectrum was full of bugs, so people started working on improvements years ago and have been producing tweaked versions with all sorts of improvements and additional commands. Everyone was (mostly) happy with the CPC Firmware, so there was very little tweaking done. The Spectrum also has some free space left in the ROM, so there's space for new stuff like IDE commands and so on, but the CPC ROM is more or less fully packed.

EEEP! Was looking at this picture and wondering what the hell CPC revision it was for a good 2 mins 30 seconds before the penny dropped duh!

I was always jealous about the tweaks and the new ROMs for the Speccy, until I realised it was need that pushed them to produce them.


However, in my mind there's still room for improvement - wouldn't it superb if there was a fusion of the Amstrad-made stuff and QuickCMD for instance?

No, you don't get it!

Hmm, I still don't get it. There's obviously a gap in my "Nerdy Film Knowledge"

You're missing out. Fantastic series. Every tuesday morning I wake up humming the intro music (opening credits, btw, are probably the best ever seen in a tv series). That's because we watch in on Monday nights - ohhhh that's today
