On Feb 14, 2:31pm in "Re: Expansion? (was Re:Childline)", you warbled: ] Taking all that has been said into consideration,I feel that people ] are let down / annoyed when there is NO SOFTWARE SUPPORT for new bits ] of hardware, taking the kalideoscope, many people purchased that, but ] what software was there? The only thing i've seen was a routine on ] SAM PRIME issue 3, apart from that i dont even know if there was anything ] else.
Aha.... but the problem was that the K was shite... ] And how many people actually know how they can use it themselves...? Me. ] Would you not agree that this would make people more skeptical about ] hardware in the future. If there was software support, the hardware ] would 'have a use' and become more popular. Find a `use' for K and I'll use it. had the K been designed with _use_ in mind, ie with a set of palette registers that could have changed the output depending on the current output colour, it would have been _useful_. As it was, it wasn't. Shame, since it cost so much, and took so much time. At least I know how to solder nicely now :) Geoff
