Hi Peter Thanks for the initiative... Given my limited knowledge at this level, I think I'd need to have it explained in a little more detail as to the relative benefits/limitations of each option before I could form and share an informed opinion. For example: a) What potential clock-speeds can an F...

Hi again Daniele Thanks, I have successfully run QEmu on the PowerPC based 5300cs - sluggish, but a bit of fun! If you ever did happen to find the native PPC version of QEm, I'd love to try that too. Meanwhile, the 190cs is completely dead (motherboard corroded in places from battery leakage, I reck...

Hi Giorgio Good question. The difference between the sizes of the two extension files is considerable, though nether one is _that_ big (Hermes IPCEXT: 356 bytes, sHermes IPCEXT: 5600 bytes.) One can leverage the IPCVER$ command which should differentiate between Hermes/sHermes or original 8049, but ...

What a terrific Easter gift -thanks Marcel and Albin!

Happy Easter!

Once I get either the 190cs working again, or receive the 5300cs, I'll have a play. Grazie, ...

Thanks Daniele

Buona pasqua, Giorgio!

Thanks! I guess that's Daniele, right?

What is the minimum RAM expansion needed to run either on the PB 190cs or 5300cs?

Thanks Derek! I'll let you know.
