Some time off over Easter

So with a little time off over the Easter holiday it’s amazing what you can get on with!
I have bashed the case for the MaxiMite just waiting for the LED holders.  Then I can look at printing some front and rear panels. 





Started looking at the MicroMite, it sort of works but I think that the 3.3v line is a little low in mA.  I have ordered some regulators to see if this helps.  It would be good to have a board that can run from a PC USB port.



Also finished my Conway’s Game of Life on the ZX Spectrum, looking at using this code to learn Z80 assembly.  I will start by converting each routine to assmberly one at a time.  May also port this to the MaxiMite once it’s finished!




And say Hello to Benji, the new addition to the family.
