There's a good page on the RR-NET showing apps that use it at http://www.protovision-online.de/hardw/rr_net.htm There are various stand-alone "clones" of the RR-NET, including the 64NIC+ - http://www.jbrain.com/projects/64nic/ which should still be available for purchase, and will work with pretty much any app that works with RR-NET

Wow! I'm really impressed by that number, I hope the demand is there. I trust we'll soon be seeing a demo of a C64 with several X-Pander3s chained together, loaded to the gills with multiple 64NICs? ;-) -Leif |
