Has anyone had a chance to burn and use the test copy of my CoCoNet
ROM? CoCoNet provides multiple solutions for CoCo file storage and transfers.
The final 1.0 release should have the remote printing working as well
as Drive Pak partition adding/removing (although PART.BAS can do it).
Btw, current and potential Drive Pak customers will like to know that
I plan to produce massive games and apps on MicroSD cards beginning
in 2010. Up to 2gb per game means there will be definately be HQ
sound/music and graphics/video among other goodies. The Drive Pak
will be sold for as cheap as possible, sometimes below cost, in order
to maximize the user base.
Some of the BASIC/ECB/DECB command enhancements in CoCoNet 1.x will
allow for playing audio and animated graphics sequences ("video")
from BASIC for anybody wanting to write their own large scale games
or demos easier.
From what I see with other projects and my own, 2010 should be even
better than 2009.
