RE: More conference videos now online
Eric, Jake - Thanks for gathering all this cool stuff for people like myself.

I watched the stories Bill W. tells about the move from the Saturn CPU and how it made its way into the 28C and forward. Some very innovative work for its time! Also the constraints under which any project has to make things work.

I especially liked the story (or explanation) as to why the 28C only had 2kb of RAM and how the sales volume justified the development of the 28S (Quote: "it sold better than the 41, very fast").

Back in the day - i think it was late 87 - I found a way to mount a CMT 32Kb RAM - built for the 71b - into the 28C (Wlodeck helped with some suggestions) finding Din and Dout and the 4-bit bus on the 28C PCB.

Fun times!
