May 8, 2009 – LNW Research Expansion Board

June 8, 2009 – LNW Research Expansion Board


A site visitor from Ann Arbor, Michigan has found a LNW Research Expansion Board, and many, if not all of the parts to go into the board.

He is asking for $50 (which includes U.S. shipping & handling). If you are interested, please contact me.

So long as this “ad” is up, the item is still available. Once it is struck out, it is gone.

May 20, 2009 – Beta Testing New Search Function

by @ 1:17 am. Filed under 80 Microcomputing, Magazine, Site Updates, Softside


May 19, 2009 – Beta Testing New Search Function


With Horacio having finished scanning the rest of the 80 Micro‘s, and with Thomas McNair busily scanning missing SoftSide’s, I have used my extremely limited knowledge of HTMLized SQL to expand the (now deleted) “80 Micro Magazine Search Page” to a “TRS-80 Magazine Search Page”. Right now it can accept Softside or 80 Micro (through some fairly sloppy coding which will NOT scale well once additional types of magazines are added), and I have added SoftSide Issue 39 to the NEW Database.

If anyone is interested in helping convert tables of contents to lines of database code, please contact me. It will basically involve typing in the tables of contents in a specific way, and you can do as little or as much as you want.
