Having researched Sun Electronics/Sunsoft for five years, I am really happy to finally see that G.T. Block Challenger have been dumped. I made that Fandom wiki page. The text is not very correct. I am almost finished with my first magazine about Sunsoft, where I cover their old games. So, I will be really happy to make changes to the text so it no longer says it is lost. And some screenshots will be great too.

Just a sneak peek of what PR #7695 will allow.. Emulated HP9845 connecting to Hercules-emulated IBM S/370 mainframe!

Thanks for watching!

The Regnecentralen RC759 can now boot one of the floppies:



Keyboard works, and the 82730 was much improved too.

There are random floppy I/O errors though and other disks don't even get that far. I'll probably take a break now, the 186 isn't really my favorite CPU.

Some stuff you can do with the recently promoted Mac drivers. All of these are fresh installs from floppy images using the new floppy emulation.

I took a look at a random skeleton driver and fleshed it out:



It's a "Bingo Pinball". It partially works, but of course it's a bit pointless without ball physics simulation. The service mode is interesting though, it allows you to read and write all locations in memory.

Neat, Duke! I'd love to see more of these "everything but the physics" wireups for mechanical/pinball games.

Finally: CD-ROM on the Mac! AJR and Al Claus contributed to getting this far.



And here's booting off of the System 7.5.3 CD-ROM:

And of course once you have a CD-ROM drive working on the Mac, it must be time for Myst.

That's awesome. Why does the CD-ROM list "available space"?
