Hi All,

I don't think the list allows attachments so I've posted the firmware from Bil
Herd's Commodore LCD prototype here for you to download:

I just received these images and wanted to share them with you.  Even without
disassembling, the contents are very interesting.  You can see the built-in
applications and BASIC 3.6 (U103).  BASIC 3.6 looks like it has the same
Easter egg text as 3.5.

Many thanks to Bil Herd for making these available to us!

Regards,
Mike

Bil told me that he was surprised that the eproms were so readable.
