Wow, nice! If someone can put those on cartridge and each one would work on
the TS2068, I'd gladly pay!

Subject: [ts2068] ANN: New LROS carts
Hi,
I'm back. Miss me? While I was away I created two new LROS carts:
1) Spectrum emulator
Works like the TImex Portugal one. No OUT command required.
2) Shadow of the Unicorn
A cartridge version of this Mikro-Gen title from 1985. The original was a
64K game provided
as a 16K ROM and cassette.
Drop the 9 byte headers and you can burn them to 16K and 64K EPROMs
respectively for use
with a real 2068.

They are tested on the Fuse emulator. I got the LROS documentation
from Johnny Red's Timex Computer World site. I'm certain they will
work on the real machine (after dropping the 9 byte DCK headers and
burning to an appropriate sized EPROM). You just need to find someone
who can create the carts. I'd love to see some pics of Shadow of the
Unicorn running on a real TS2068.
