In the unclassifieds there has been offered a FREE 16 K RAM for some time. Anybody want it? I am getting tired of printing that ad.
The “Hacker” is back. Some of you will remember the Hacker as one of the better newsletters published by Timex-Sinclair clubs. It expanded its coverage to include MS-DOS machines and shortly thereafter it died. I got a letter today saying that it was coming back. It will, however, not have any content of direct interest to Sinclair users. (It will concentrate on MS-DOS shareware reviews. These will be of little use to any Sinclair user except perhaps to QL users with a MS-DOS emulator.)
GOOD NEWS! I have finally heard from A. Eckhardt, a former QZX advertiser who produced the best interface to connect the ZX81 and TS1000 to a tnc for packet. He no longer has the completed interface, but he will sell (for about $25) the non-standard parts needed for you to build one of these interfaces for yourself. He has promised to write up some assembly instructions. Contact him at 918 Anna Street, Boalsburg, PA 16827. I have added him to the Vendor’s list which is published from time to time.
