well it is summer time. The time when oftentimes you
can find bargains on eBay. Remember though...the last
one ended an order of magnitude higher then the
current bid. It's bound to go considerably higher.
Now that I'm back in Joisy for a bit, I'm going to
crack open my Cat hopefully, to get a gander at it's
innards. Problem: that's my old bedroom, and all the
other *cats* spent the winter in there. Place is
loaded w/fleas LOL LOL. I'm not supposed to go in
there at all!

Hi
You might want to hold off for a while. I suspect
that the market is
reaching saturation. There just aren't that many
that are expecting
to pay $600+ for a Cat.
For those that are interested in hacking the Cat or
writing another
printer driver as I've done, look at the Cat info on
the DigiBarn
web page. I've been doing other hacking since then
for anyone
that is interested. I've found the video RAM and I'm
thinking of creating
some graphics functions. Right now I just have a
simple XOR to
each bit but I realize that a line drawing routine
would be good as
well.
If someone on this group wants to talk offline
about the Cat,
let me know. It is a remarkable computer.
