Good evening!

I added the scans of the power board of my Tano Dragon. I also included a picture of the part of the PCB that's under the shielding, where the modulator usually is.

Cheers!

I have a small power board from a broken DVD player which has -12,12,5 outputs, I just need to add a -12 -> -5 regulator or converter. I'll eventually let you know how that works, but it is a bit down on my list

"Worth the effort" is a very individual measure when it comes to retro computing

@ tormod: Yes, you're right. Some people would say, the whole thing is not worth the effort...

@ robcfg: You started a fine section. I think, it would deserve a link on the main page, maybe on the left column -> hardware?

Thank you very much!

Regarding the link to the page, you can click on Publications->Technical on the left column. It may not be the ideal place, but I think only admins can make changes on the main page.

I'll make the change to the main page if there is a concrete proposal. Should we move the "Technical" link from publications to hardware? Don't make me think too hard on my own...

Hi Rolf!

I'd rather add the "PCB Pictures","PSU Pictures" and "Cartridge Pictures" links to the bar.

Talking about cartridge pictures, all Dragon Data cartridges seem to have the same PCB, should I add known expansion cartridges pcb pictures and such to that page?

Cheers!

Can we just settle on "Hardware pictures" or something similar to reduce it to just one line in the sidebar?

-- Rolf

Seems fair enough to me!

Hardware Pictures, then.

Regards,
Rob

Thank you very much, Rolf!

Should I remove the links from the Publications->Technical section?

I already put the links on the new page
