Oric AtmoStrat GX

This is the right place to discuss on how to implement hardware vsync, adding a VIA or AY chipset, puting multiple roms, or how to design a new flash expansion card.

Oric AtmoStrat GX

Post by jede »

Does someone know if AtmoStrat GX is available ? I still want one, but there is no news.

If it's not available, will the schematics be released ?

Hello,

Just for your information, it seems the Atmostrat GX site (http://oric.club/atmostrat) was taken down sometime during the last quarter of 2018...

Fortunately, there are archived versions of the site still available on "Wayback Archive", the latest dates back 13 August 2018:
https://web.archive.org/web/20180813121 ... /atmostrat

Let's hope this is not the end of the Atmostrat GX, as this project really deserves to be continued... :?

I was sent one but it didn't seem to work so I sent it back.
It was using the odd 5V voltage so I was struggling to find a suitable power supply.

I've emailed George to ask if he's OK and not heard anything back. Anyone heard anything from him recently ?

@Steve M: George (aka jorodr) is OK, but he is very busy with his everyday business.
He didn't forget about your AtmoStrat and will send it asap.
BTW, he organizes tomorrow (18.05. Night of Museums 2019) small exhibition with 8-bit retro computers.
I'll be there too :).

EDIT: here is the announce of the exhibition.

Firstly, I am pleased the designer of this project is okay. I don’t have a lot about this project, are the Gerbers or .brd files for the PCB available for us to self build with a schematic?
It would be interesting to make one as I will probably never get the chance to own a Telestrat sadly.
