QIMI: another thing that I would like that can be implemented too!!!tetroid wrote:Thank you.QLvsJAGUAR wrote:Looks good!
I might buy one or two once available.
Adding a QIMI compatible mouse port and battery backup for the RTC would be perfect. Plus a jumper to switch power source 9V/5V.
QL forever!
I think about Minerva ROM ( fitted to interface ) and RTC ( or this is impossible ? ).
Do anybody have the Minerva MKII RTC schematic ?

Is the Minervs MkII copytight... as I am in the process of fitting a new socket to my Minerva MkII. I thought about reverse engineering either the shole board or the Minerva Rom board minus the I2C part.

Super Gold Card is... super and gold, but this new interface is... new! It might open new doors, new possibilities....

You would have to ask Tony Firshman about the copyright to Minerva MKII - I would rather not get involved in any discussions over copyright, other than my own.

Please no more sales of "Trump" cards. Unbelievable, the world is sick!
We should give a new name to this wonderful expansion card.
