A86: 86 Central Update - Unofficial FAQ updated - Sound Demo 1.0 updated
Hey everybody, I just updated 86 Central at
http://www.dogtech.com/cybop/ti86
If anyone has some spare moments could they check out my Unofficial FAQ for
corrections, additions, or comments? I really need people's input. Anyway
the FAQ is where any FAQ would be if someone spent 30 hours working on it..
And I plan to add more! So please E-mail me that way I know there is a
reason for my web page other then the self-learning aspect of it.
Some of the updates are listed below, which were copied off the front page
of my site.
