I received the following letter and was not much help. If anyone
can comment please do so!:
----------
In the E.Arthur Brown catalog, there is advertised two cartridge port
adaptors. One converts the cartridge port to a "standard 44 pin .156
spaced edge connector" that "fits directly with the Radio Shack proto-
typing boards". The other is a 24 Bit I/O board with 24 bits of
individually selectable input and output or 16 bits of I/O and 5 levles
of prioritized interrupt inputs and the ability to WRITE to the port
(according to the ad).
My question is this: could either of these be used to provide expansion
capability to the ST, for example, to hook in a VGA board and monitor or
a math co-processor board or Ethernet card????
Big dreams have to start somewhere, don't they...
