@agranlund totally agree, that and the H5 being a pimped up Atari, might be the comeback of the ST.

The first three Atari versions are off to their buyers but first, my OCD says one last test to make sure.

You'll need a few sockets to space it out but thats how I was originally testing them. Reason why I recommend the exxos decoder board is that it sits nicely on top of that when you solder a socket onto the decoder board.

Eventually it should work great with Flashy Clock as well.

Ah, good advice there...looked at those boards but the limited funds can't stretch to that as well. Maybe in a few months...

Until then, I have some sockets destined for H4 #2 which will suffice for now....

Just built another two TF536s and will start testing them shortly.

This time its one 64mb version and a 128mb version but with Alliance memory, so that one will need a good test to see how the new memory works out.

Not yet but I wanted to test the ram chips ready so that I'm able to test the 128mb option once Terriblefire has had time to tweak the firmware.
