OK, I'm happy with the PCB - I've added the mounting holes to the printout.
Unfortunately, I don't think a 16K/32K switch is do-able at this late stage
- I wish I'd planned for it earlier... I _could_ do a hack that used 2 poles
on the dipswitch but it's not very nice and incorrect settings would cause
problems...
It looks like we're going to try and put together the panel tomorrow and
send it off - until then I'm not sure how many I'll be making... when I get
the board back I'll build up a bare-minimum EPROM version and a fully-loaded
FLASH version for testing.
BTW what are the 'must have' cartridges - for testing purposes of course!
The only ones I'm really familiar with on my list are DOD, EDTASM+, popcorn,
canyon climber, mega-bug, clown & balloons, galactic attack and polaris.
I've never played Demon Attack, but that looks good?!? And is Thexder a
16/32K cartridge, or does it have extra hardware?
Regards,
