About the old It was a long time ago: What's the problem?
ZXNet echo conference «real.speccy»
From Igor Turashev → To All 14 January 1999
Somehow 13 Dec 98 at 00:14:07 Andrey Mikheev and Vova Bakum were talking about What
the problem? 33600 and...
VB>> I understand, but without interruptions there is no way it can handle it at this
VB>> speed (in a turbo no more than 19200)...
[chomp-chomp]
IT>>> And at 57600 it refused to work at all
VB>> In Melon, forget about this loading speed altogether - no pulls.
VB>> With interruptions - easily (without a turbo;)
AM> People!!! Is it like I’m not there at all???
AM> Am I downloading my email by whistling? YOU ARE ALL WRONG!!!!
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AM> My port is locked to 57600. WORKING.
AM> Modem: Acorp 33600 int. WORKING.
AM> I'm downloading mail, I'm browsing the bbs. How can I understand this?
Who's to blame for the fact that you have a momeda with a self-tuning port
that's abnormal, and even if you set the speed to 999999, it should work, and
not everyone is so lucky. yes, so you yourself are wrong. And there is no need to misinform people. By the way, if by clock cycles: from the mono port for int, if you take 200
cycles per symbol (with a print), on the Pentagon you can output 358.4 characters, and per second
then 17920 characters, and for 57600 you need to plow for int 1152 characters.process
total 62.(2) clock cycles per symbol. And you want to say that it is possible to process this together with a keyboard poll??? 8-[?]
AM> PS: no nmi!
And the thing is apparently useful. But the speck still doesn’t handle high speeds yet :(. Well
if the pipe is 14 Mhz and cash instead of RAM... ;)
All the best, Tigrr of <
