Small Update

I just wanted to drop in and say I'm not sure if I'll have a video this weekend. I've been struggling with fulfilling ATX2PCjr orders and trying to get some car troubles resolved while working on a project for a video. I've got a lot of work done to the point where I'm pretty much ready to shoot. I just haven't had the time yet.

So there will be a video soon. It's going to be on different ways to get data onto and off of older DOS computers. I had someone ask me about DOS networking and I need to backup the OS install on the Dauphin DTR-1 I was sent and that seems like the perfect mix for a video. So I'll be detailing that process and going over ways I'm not going to use that would let you do the same thing.

Worry not.

My plan for the video is to make it an introduction to getting files onto and off of a PC running newer DOS for beginners. So I'll cover things like a USB 1.44MB drive for new PCs, backpack CD drives, SD/CF to IDE adapters. I'll mention goteks, but I don't own one. But I want to focus more on networking using mTCP and ethernet packet drivers more specifically. And I want to cover interlink as a useful in between option. I'm going to mention laplink but not use. I thought laplink was still being licensed but I just saw that it is on WinWorld so I'm not sure now. Interlnk is the lowest common denomenator since it will be included in some DOS releases.

Tech Tangents

No worries. If you need any suggestions or details for that topic (serial, parallel, floppy, paper, networking, cassette, etc.), don't hesitate to ask. (Saves me the trouble of making a similar video!)
