That's a very nice set! Thanks for posting pics.

How have you hooked up your machine to the display? Is it connected to a SCART port?

Cheers,
Petri

Could you please tell me a little about the CF adaptor? Could you also maybe photograph it separately?

I am working on a design for almost exactly this - based on QubIDE. If it's already out there, if I can find who did it and license the design that would be a better use of time/resources.

To use the CF to IDE Adapter an external PSU is necessary (with floppy drive MOLEX connector adapter) :

Compliments Massimo, looks very good, now your computing, programming, retro gaming can start :-)
What kind of display do you have? Is it a computer monitor or a flat tv with scart?

Saluti e ciao,
Thorsten
