Re: PCG for Sharp MZ-700 / Générateur de caractères graphiques pour Sharp MZ-700

Would it be possible to create a VBL interrupt too? I see major issues: 1) there is only one /INT signal (regardless /NMI) and it is used for timer2. 2) CPU runs in IM1 mode (RST 38h).

Re: Sharp MZ-700 Backplane / Fond de panier Sharp MZ-700

As long as the receiver doesn't read it (or connect here - not sure which is correct), the message won't move to Sent items.

Re: MZ-700 tape not loading software
