Re: Never seen before model of Dragon64?

Welcome DragonChaser.

Thanks to an overbearing law implemented by the British government last year, images hosted at Imgur cannot be seen by those of us living in the U.K. (unless a VPN is used). Would you mind uploading the photographs directly to a post of yours on this forum?

Re: The Dragon Directory Jan/Feb 1989

Interesting, was "The Complete History of the Dragon : From 1982 to 1989" (mentioned on page 12) ever published?

Re: OS-9 on XRoar

I gather some keyboard makers were influenced by a common (albeit not popular) software vendor to put that company's logo on some of them. You mean those extra keys either side of the space-bar that first appeared in 1994 and became more common a year later weren't influenced by Play School? So tha...

Re: FarmFax batery for Memory card

Re: Dragon 64 repair

Hello,
is that a damaged track within the red circle? Also I'm not sure of the horizontal line crossing the track within the yellow circle.

Given that I have a Dragon 32 and no disk drive I prefer neither option :lol:

Re: Xroar where are my roms?

Phill, if all of the above fails then open a command prompt with admin rights and type:

g:
cd \
dir /a /s /p d*.rom

Re: Megapede (Dragon Data) Unreleased

Thanks Richard.
On your Megapede page entry you ask for more info. L. Curtis Boyle states that the author was Mark Skala www.lcurtisboyle.com/nitros9/megapede.html, perhaps Mr. Skala was a little too clever with the title screen.
