Re: [emax] Upgrade of non-HD EMAX

2006-07-04 by ted Summers

I was one of those in waiting. Originally, Rob from Emulator Archive  
was going to see if he could make it happen. He met with Emu, got the  
bin/hex files, and was going to make chips for sale. But he didn't  
have a chip programmer that could handle the specific chips.  Then,  
as I understand it, he passed the torch to Route66, and nothing  
definitive has happened that I am aware of since then.

I got lucky and found a "dead" Emax HD rack on ebay- cost me about  
$60, moved the chips over to my keyboard that was non HD, and, since  
I had hard drive spares from several macs I had parted, got it all  
working, else I would still be in the non-HD crowd.

Best of luck- I think my route (finding a dead one for parts) is  
probably the best available answer at this point.

Sorry I am not much more help than that.
