Midi Maze with the boys...

Post by coonsgm »

A fun New Years Eve, New Years Day, and still set up because they want to play some more.

A seriously fun time!

Oh, what's that monitor with integrated floppy drive? I've never seen one of those.

The PS3000 is just awesome looking. Andy (Tillek, Klenotic, "that guy")
has one too. :)

MIDIMAZE has always been a fav game of mine. I've only been able to
play multiplayer with it a handful of times, but I always enjoyed it.

So...let's get *the* question out of the way - who won? :lol:

By the way, that "weird" floppy pinout on that board... it's the normal "old" Chinon 14 pin floppy pinout. I had an SF314 with a drive with that pinout.

What I found super cool though was the pinout for the floppy 2. There are mounting points in the metal frame for a second drive. Everything points to an intent to have a dual floppy version of the P3000. My guess is that was before the STF design was finalized with the internal drive.

Pure guessing though..

Yeah. I'm surprise that it wasn't sold as part of a bundle with the ST(M)... And the PSU could have had a power cable to run the ST itself, which is what I thought it would have. Seems like a no-brainer.

Maybe it arrived just as Jack decided to green light the STF(M) and so thought it pointless.
