This is just an hypotesis, a weird idea... I think that u could easily
remmber the old sega console called "genesis" in the States and "Megadrive",
here in Europe. Games was his ROM and it had inside a Motorolla 68000 (and a
Z80 to provide compatibility with the 8bits Master System). At the "end" of
life of this console they made a wonderfull game ported from arcade machine;
Virtual Racing. The game was very big and needed a lot of cpu power... And
ingeneer from Sega put a DSP in the cartridge !
So this could be for me and other "weird-thinking-man" a great project for
the future. We have the TI92, the Plus module that "offer" us the
possibility to change the ROM by flash and, finally, acces to the 68000
bus... So, i'll check if it is possible physicly (Hardware) and of course
software. if it's possible it could be a work of ~1 year i think...
It would be great if someone had hardware info about the DSP inside the
cartridge, but i boubt it !
U could also put this message in the TI-hardware list because i don't have
acces to it and i'm tired of doing it... :)
