These docs aren't dated. they appeared in the last week or so, before that was a page saying TPL pulled funding and sacked Moore

It is just weird, all very deja vu. The previous generation of Moore's designs went through a similar quagmire to nowhere. Robby

What a shame - tho there is a certain charm in owning a custom computer that can't be replicated. Hopefully there will be a firesale of stuff. There can't be many in the wild, mine is serial number 30 - what's your Jeff? brucee On Tue, Apr 7, 2009 at 4:00 AM, maht mattmob...@proweb.co.uk wrote: SeaForth is dead already http://colorforth.com/vTPL.htm http://colorforth.com/S40.htm Bruce Ellis wrote: Please share your experience. http://groups.google.com/group/casella brucee On Thu, Mar 19, 2009 at 8:45 PM, Pavel Klinkovsky pavel.klinkov...@gmail.com wrote: I am playing with the FORTHdrive (SEAforth-24 chip) for half a year.

Re: [9fans] Fwd: New Chip (SEAforth 40C18) - New Challenge
I don't trust penguins. But it's worth a try. I haven't installed the linux goo on my pusbox - if tiger wasn't house trained he would do more than bark at it when it thrashes crazy. But yes. Read the spec and come up with ideas. Move this to Casella group if we have enough enthusiasts. brucee On Thu, Mar 19, 2009 at 5:21 PM, Jeff Sickel j...@corpus-callosum.com wrote: On Mar 18, 2009, at 11:47 PM, Bruce Ellis wrote: The chip is a totally insane challenge. But looks like a lot of fun and functionality. What do you say to a linuxemu as the first pass? At least that keeps us in the realm of using the official Forth environment until we gain enough leverage for promoting our own tool chain... If that's the case, can usb/usbd; usb/disk should recognize the target well enough for current usage (just a FAT disk) and pass that through to linuxemu... -jas

Re: [9fans] Fwd: New Chip (SEAforth 40C18) - New Challenge
The chip is a totally insane challenge. But looks like a lot of fun and functionality. The company is cool too. Ask me if you need a contact. I flippantly asked for 64 cores for a chess machine. There is apparently an unannounced board with two chips - 80 cores. I'm not sure any human should have to program it manually so tool fiends please collaborate on this - the linux tool kit is unimpressive. First to glenda it wins a t-shirt. brucee On Thu, Mar 19, 2009 at 3:36 PM, David Leimbach leim...@gmail.com wrote: Wow... 40 cores of forthy-goodness.
