32016 delay?

[edit]

I vaguely remember that the 32016 copro was spectacularly late, even by 1980s micro industry standards, but I can't find a solid reference. 86.136.251.18 01:47, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What about the prices ?

[edit]

I seem to remember the teletext adaptor was £220 or so, but what were the list prices of the Second Processor modules ?

Teletext adaptor

[edit]

Someone posted "The hardware and software design was created by Graham Toal" on the page. Not remotely accurate - when I took over the project the hardware was already in place and the software was 90% written (by volume!) but seriously broken - my job was to fix the many bugs that caused runtime crashes, along with some feature enhancement. It was a rescue job and a race against time to get a ROM out in time for sales. I did get the ROM released to production before Christmas but it was too late for Christmas sales that year. --GrahamToal 70.124.38.160 (talk) 21:59, 21 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
