Whew! Finally got 12 working NADSBoxes basically ready. Though they
are still awaiting new CR2032 batteries and DB9-DB25 adapters. Two of
the boards I thought I could get working ended up having unfixable
issues, so not sure if I will get to 15 or not. Possibly, but it will
take another 10-12 hours before I know. I have spent the past 6 days
just getting these 12 to work.
I think after this batch, there will certainly be no more NADSBoxes
given the cost to manufacture them. If I built anything else after
this, it would have to be Woolly, TDock or NADSLite.
Getting really close now, though it is taking quite a bit of effort and
energy (mostly a sore back).

I would like to buy one of the NADSBoxes, when available. I (hopefully
politely), expressed my interest months ago when Ken first mentioned
the upcoming batch. I'm still interested. Thanks.

To anyone who is thinking about getting a NADSbox: GET ONE. Don't
hesitate! I've owned one for years (from Ken's original batch)
and it
has worked flawlessly every time. You will not regret it.
Cheers, Bert

All,
I finished up version 1.70 of SARDOS for the NEC. The T-Word,
Sardine and TS-DOS features are unchanged. The LINE utility and
the XFER utility can pulled from the ROM into the ALTLCD portion
of memory and used when needed. This prevents having to use a file
location and extra memory when you want to be able to load them.
There are instructions with BASIC code that I have uploaded as
well. If you have any trouble with it please let me know.
