SmartBASIC - A Coleco Adam Forum

Thank you for sharing. I really hope to be coding in 2022.

can't wait!!!

I am starting to think the return issues is BS also. I have already received a response from both the seller and AliExpress. The seller wanted me to commit fraud, asking me to say that the item never arrived :evil: . AliExpress offered to refund two items, but that was mostly my fault, because that ...

I have always been afraid of ordering chips, maybe with your success I will give it a try. But for cables and boxes they are my go-to. No-one is perfect, I have had issues with almost any supply house. I am still curious about the return process, I will let you know how it goes.

I have a new board ready to print, but am holding off for the time being so I can dedicate my funds to the NeoColeco board. I will hopefully be picking this one back up late September early Nov...

A quick update. The more I work on the case, the less I like it. I have decided to go back to my original idea for 3D printed cases. My hope is to do the first few on my machine, and then have a shop print the rest. My challenge now is learning free cad. Up to now I have used Autodesk apps, but with...

Spent some time this evening testing, and I am happy to say the NeoColeco works great with the Phoenix. Unfortunately it hasn't improved my gaming skill. Oh well back to work.
