Re: 80 Column OS/9 Software for the DragonPlus ...

Re: INFOCOM series on CoCo-VGA for DRAGON64

Pere,

Just to let you know, this works like a dream on my CocoVGA - playing Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy at this very minute!

Very impressive work.

Cheers, Tony

Well, it looks like Duncan's coming! Who still has their copy of his book? Mine's actually looking quite tidy, given how often I referred to it!

Dragon Meetup 2018 - 16th June

Hi all, I said I'd do an official post and here it is! Like last year, we've got the classroom at the Centre for Computing History from the morning (Museum opens to the public at 10am, but there should be people there earlier) until 4.30pm. I'll make sure there's plenty of composite monitors availab...
