00:00:00 --- log: started forth/14.02.15 00:10:21 Man, that must be a slow CPU if you can watch it booting! 00:10:33 What did you program it on? An IBM 5400 series? 00:10:56 ttmrichter: 6809 00:11:15 ttmrichter: it's in an Ensoniq Mirage sampler 00:11:32 it takes about four or five seconds, because it loads a fixed size of data from the floppy 00:11:57 Floppy? 00:12:15 from reset it spends about a second or two on a RAM test, enables the floppy, then loads two full tracks and the last sector of another ten tracks 00:12:32 Wow. I haven't seen a floppy disk in over a decade. 00:12:33 owing to the slightly unusual disk format 00:12:39 * gordonjcp uses them all the time 00:12:59 I've got various old synths and samplers that use them, and I do a lot of work on medical imaging equipment 00:13:14 and industrial x-ray stuff, and things 00:13:40 I have a nice little sideline in getting stuff on and off of floppies for people 00:14:16 some companies are prepared to pay a fortune to get something off a disk they've had for a couple of years 00:15:00 ... so if I charge a tenner for it, I get loads of repeat custom and some beer money, for doing fun stuff 00:16:33 ttmrichter: the whole reason for building Forth on the Mirage was so I could poke about at the hardware and see what it did 00:16:52 ttmrichter: mostly it makes very loud farting noises when you set the oscillator chip registers 00:17:25 You could sell that as a far generator. :) 00:19:17 s/far/fart/ 00:23:57 --- join: vectorman (~vesko@78.83.25.116)
