Subj: NEC 8201 AND RAMPAC
Welcome to Club 100 Scott. You and Gary Weber, another NEC laptop user, need to chat. Gary is interested in how Rampacs and NECs mate together. In this regard, see MSG#6514 and MSG#6509. I'm doing a lot of Rampac related programming lately. Several irons in the fire. Should have a dynomite Rampac diagnostic finished before long and put it in the Downloads menu of this board. Between you and Gary, this BASIC program can be expanded to include, or another version made exclusive to, the NEC laptops. I prefer to expand it. Gary and I have "zero fingerprints" for Tandy laptops 100, 102, and 200, and for the NEC laptops. Such fingerprints make it easy for a program to detect which laptop is at hand before committing and laptop specific action. That way, branch is made to laptop specific parts of a program based on the laptop which is executing the program. So a single program is generic to a wide range of different laptop models. Again, welcome aboard!
