Re: PiStorm

I have an Amiga A500, with a PiSorm that just needs setting up, I can try it with QDOS Classic. That would be an important check.

I am going to sell all the Amiga stuff on eBay, as I do not need them, I have a Amiga A600, but no PiStorm.

Re: FPGA replacment for the ZX8301 ULA and more
