Re: Date discussion for Allschwil Meeting 2006 Message #4 Posted by Christoph Giesselink on 7 June 2006, 7:45 p.m., in response to message #1 by Matthias Wehrli
I may have time on both dates.
So what changed since the last Allschwil meeting in November 2004?
Many, many bugfixes in Emu28, Emu42 and Emu48. Emu28 and Emu48 got the keyboard macro player (also the next versions of Emu42PPC and Emu48PPC). Integration of VGA support into the PPC versions of Emu42 and Emu48. Garbage collection for "Load Object..." in all emulators. Memory upgrade for Emu28.
For the RS232C transfer from/to the HP28S I rewrote the transmitter software, because I recognized problems with the timing specific parts beginning on odd or even addresses.
Made tests about ROM image dumping for the HP28S and HP42S over IR with 2400 baud RS232C protocol, you may also have a look at the forum article http://www.hpmuseum.org/cgi-sys/cgiwrap/hpmuseum/articles.cgi?read=582 for further information. But this failed because I found no proper receiver for capturing the data.
And the ultimate highlight, I added a HP41CY Turbo to my collection. Let us remember that the first Allschwil meeting in 2003 was introduced as collectors meeting.
