From Robert Bernardo@3:770/3 to All on Fri Jan 7 15:07:44 2022

Here is an interesting project --

I'm wondering about other uses for it.

Happy New Year!

Indeed interesting.
But I assume that there will not be much software (or better VHDSL source) produced for it.
And an Ultimate 1541 costs about the same. (Website is currently down, will be up again soon)

About $253 to go in the Kickstarter campaign!
