Hi All,
First of all, I'd like to say thanks to everyone that has helped me along the way this year. Your advice has been extremely helpful and appreciated.
I had not planned on building a 4000E at the start of the year, and kind of fell in to it, but with no regrets.
The process has really pushed my knowledge of electronics.
A small xmas present to myself, I've picked up a G series computer with TR, 8" and 3.5" drives. Bypass unit is on a slow boat out of Japan.
First challenge is to put together a PSU for the computer. This one is a little more complex than the main console PSU!!!
It will be a week at least before it can be powered up, as the computer did not come with the main PSU connecting cable. ITT trident parts always seem to have a week lead time...
As it is a G series 4100A processor, the 3.5" drives cannot be used at this stage, and I am also waiting on an 8" program disk.
Anthony.
