Better be careful, or we'll get this site added to the blocklists too!

You're one to talk, what with all the 1541s you have. I hope you at least hide them in a closet when you have visitors.

Speaking of closets with 1541s, behold the stack of 1541s in the  TPUG locker (the guy in the picture is Greg, our current President). And yeah, there's more.

Uh oh... now the Australian government is jumping on the porn blocking bandwagon. Thankfully, one can opt-out so that the 1541 Ultimate project page can be viewed, but opt-outters will have to provide an explanation why they want to see unfiltered content. If Lance signs out of the program, he'll probably end up with a mark on his permanent record saying, "COMMODORK. Watch carefully."

I dont know when he will start a serious production run but the final design is well underway. You can encourage him by mailing him to pre-order or give suggestions.

Here is another suggestion, how about the ability to replace the roms in the 64?
Being able to load alternate basic/kernal/character roms and then switch at runtime would be so so lovely.

Nice one. I doubt it is possible because of the PLA that might prevent this.

Replacing the kernal is basically how freezer cartridges work, thought they only do it for the vectors.

Heres another suggestion, how about an optional network interface. For real out there suggestions, how about putting a 65816 cpu core on there at 20mhz? :-)
