1. I stand from Argentina. I own a Timex Sinclair 2068

Hello, I stand from Argentina. I own a Timex Sinclair 2068 (actually I have two of them, one with a video problem), which has a Spectrum emulator cartridge (made in Argentina) and am interested in getting the most out of it. Wanted to know if there is a plaque "twister board" for use with it, and I would like to use a divided with it. If anyone has one to sell, I'd be grateful. Greetings to the whole group.

Hi!

One of the list members (Don Dindang) makes a twister board that has a Spectrum ROM. It works with the divIDE and the Interface 1bis (I have this and it works really well).

I love my 2068 + Don's twister + IF 1bis. All of the IF1 disk commands (those printed on the 2068 keyboard) are supported. Plus it has a joystick port, PS/2 keyboard/mouse connector, and it'll connect to your PC and use it as a disk/printer server. It's a lot more flexible than the divIDE.

Hi!

Don Dindang (on the list) makes a twister with Spectrum rom that works with the divIDE. It also works with the Interface 1bis.

I have the IF 1bis and love it. It supports all the native Sinclair commands (which are printed on the 2068 keyboard), has a joystick port, PS/2 keyboard or mouse port and connects to a PC which it uses as a disk/print server (so you can print to the PC).

The question is this: if I use this interface can load native programs for ts2068 or possess the same spectrum ROM of the machine is converted into a spectrum and "longer" one ts2068? the idea is to use native ts2068 programs with some external storage device. Thanks!

Yes, you can do that, just remove the eprom.
