got a dick smith VZ200 with 16k ram-pack

Post by ravenxau »

I managed to save a vz 200 from the rubbish!!! - after a bit of clean up, it works great. I was wondering if there are any othur VZ'ers in the community and if so, whether any one has a copy of vz2wav to convert snapshots of programs to wav files to try on the machine?

Yep, I have a VZ300 setup consisting of a VZ300, original tape drive, VZ200 RAM expansion that I modified to work switch selectable with both VZ200/VZ300 to it's full expansion capacity. I also have the printer interface and various software on tape.

My particular VZ is on my website at http://users.on.net/~clockmeister along with some software that I have converted to WAV which will work on both VZ200 and VZ300.

There is a Yahoo groups site for the VZ (vzemu) with a wealth of information.

If you're considering selling the VZ200, let me know ;-)

The VZ300 looks like typical VTech junk, but worse! I sincerely hope nobody pays good money for this landfill fodder.

Plenty of people would consider a VIC-20 landfill fodder so that is an interesting comment considering the forum you posted it in.

But then considering who posted that comment, why should I not be surprised...
