Jürgen Buchmüller has resumed work on his EACA CG emulator. His Work-In-Progress page can be found at http://pmbits.de/40846.html. Users will also need the sdl.dll from www.libsdl.org to get it to run: http://www.libsdl.org/release/SDL-1.2.14-win32.zip

Atila Grosz compiled the work in progress into a windows binary, which can be downloaded at http://gaia.atilia.eu/download/wip/cgenie_jb.zip. The GUI is accessed with the right mouse button.

March 27, 2011 – eBook Version of Priming the Pump


Theresa Welsh let me know that there is now an eBook version of the TRS-80 related book “Priming the Pump: How TRS-80 Enthusiasts Sparked the PC Revolution”. The announcement is as follows:

Priming the Pump: How TRS-80 Enthusiasts Sparked the PC Revolution, is in its second printing and we have just released it in two eBook formats: for the Kindle (sold by amazon.com) and for the Nook (sold by Barnes & Noble). These versions include illustrations in color (those that originally had color — some illustrations are original black & white photos, but we have many old magazine ads that are color, but appear in the printed book as black & white). The price for the ebook version is only $9.95.

Here are the links to where the ebook versions can be purchased:

Kindle version: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004P8JNIS

Nook version: http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Priming-the-Pump/David-Welsh/e/2940012366122/?itm=1&USRI=priming+the+pump#TABS

People who don’t have an eReader can still view these versions by downloading the “Kindle for PC” app or the “Nook for PC” app available at amazon.com or barnesandnoble.com.

Thank you David S for winning the packet given out to attendees of the Beverly Hilton TRS-80 announcement in 1978. It contained the 1977 Tandy Annual Report, the first TRS-80 catalog, and a bunch of handouts.

David was nice enough to drop ship his eBay winnings to me first for scanning.
