Re: QIMSI

Okay, €65 (or a bit more) is adequate. I thought it would be in the range of Q68 (I think I payed about €200 for it), and that would have been too expensive. Especially because I need at least 3 of them.

Re: QIMSI

BTW: I have now (hopefully) read all messages of this thread. But if I remember correctly, I never has had been told: Whats the price of this sensational interface? It depends, of what it costs! From Q68 it were a lot, but this is a full QL-replacement. The QIMSI is great, I'm sure, but as it has th...

Nope this (256 in your message) is REALLY the standard 4 color mode of a real QL (black red green white - ordered in the direction of brightness on an amber B/W-monitor).

Re: Best QL Games

I think one of the best games, nearly comparable to other computers (QL does not have hardware comparable to e.g. a C64) was Vroom (a car racing simulation). The graphics was superb (for its time) and IMHO comparable with C64 and Spectrum games. Another game I have liked a lot, was an submarine game...

I unfortunately have the same problem currently. Didn't have even setup my 2 wonderfully Q68 :-(

BTW: Where can I buy a (VGA capable) monitor with a resolution of 1024x768?

Found a great video about the Psion package

If this this is old stuff, I'm sorry. https://yt.oelrichsgarcia.de/watch?v=jGIsPke4m-4 If the above link does not work, simply watch it on YouTube (by adding the /watch?...) to the YT-URL ("oelrichsgarcia" is an Invidious server which mirrors YouTube videos). BTW: On Martin Reids homepage ...

Re: New release Minerva4Q68 v1.3

That's all unimportant to me! If Minerva runs with 512x256 AND 1024x768 in (the beautiful) 4 Colours (or black/white shades) mode, it's superb!

Re: who can shine a light on the hoglet rgd to hdmi converter

Do your really need a converter to HDMI? If it's enough to have a converter so that you can view the output of a QL, here is the thread for a cheap converter (for QL) to VGA:

Re: New release Minerva4Q68 v1.3

Thank you a lot! That´s marvelous! Especially because it's possible on Minerva to work without Pointer Environment. When my new mobile will finally be working (still not successful to install the offline Wikipedia ZIM files from Kiwix on the SD card [Android 12]) I will have a look at it. p.s.: If a...

Re: New release Minerva4Q68 v1.3

I'm currently busy installing a new mobile. If this is done, I hope I will remember this thread.

Am I right, that Minerva for the Q68 now supports the native resolution of 1024x768? for the Q68 (as on uQLx)? This would be great!
