Actually...
A friend of mine once tried to read a PSX disc on his computer.
Out of curiosity, he tried to copy one of the files.
It copied.
Unfortunatly, there was a catch.. the transfer was PAINFULLY slow.
A few bytes per second. I guess that he could select one of the smaller
files in the disc for copy, start the copy and go to sleep.
The file should be done (or almost done) in the morning.
I'll ask him about it.. though I dont really know what you people
can do with that file.
Am I correct to assume that Sony used standard industry computer
arctitecture on the PSX?
BTW
Just have to say this one: i've just watched Patlabor..
I must say, that Unit 02 programmer did with HOS exactly
what I did with Windows 95. "Never trust the first release!". lol.
I installed Windows 95 on the P133 in 1997.. oh well.
