To my mind, this would add significantly to the value of the Trinity,
and if you were to develop such a thing (presumably it'd just be
however long it takes to modify the OS ROM, then existing Trinitys
could be reflashed?) then I would definitely go on the pre-order list.

Unless you've got an EEPROM eraser and programmer, it's not something
you can prepare yourself. I have access to them in work, and if I can
find a spare chip

I don't know about Trinity, I don't have one. One for Colin to answer?

How hard is it to obtain a copy of the modified ROM in the correct
physical format and subsequently to install it? I'm a complete
electronics dunce.
Also, any thoughts on how hard it would be to put together a similar
ROM for the Trinity?

It's a real treat to just swap the CF cards between Atom Lite and SIM Coupe.
But remember the Atom Lite is not a hot swap system.

I have an Atom [Lite] card in the drive 2 slot, and use Edwin's modified

SimCoupe on your desktop machine to share all the same programs and
Having just received a copy, obviously I have to say that the 3d demo
is "truly awesome". As is the rest of the magazine and disk.
But it does make it apparent that the floppy drive in my Sam isn't

Hi folks,
Just a quick note to say that SAM Revival issue 22 is now out, and
subscribers copies have been posted this morning.
All the info on the issue and PayPal buy now options are up on my website at

All the best,
