Sorry, but I don't make changes to a name after I design it unless it is

True, but I won't make the 1 Meg versions till the software is done. It 
can automaticly check for size by calling the chip.

Ah! I see! Brian don't know nothin' Huh! I already came to him with the 
idea and a board layout and his response was encouraging. He says the 
software rescans the chip each time it is accessed, so switching is no 
problem software wise. As for the hardware, it uses the SPinTerface's 
own method of power activation (It worked for the buggy ESF better than 
the link port and switch did, so why should some one I don't even know 
tell me it is impossible on the EuP, which is far more reliable than the 
cheap old ESF. Besides, there is a reset button in case of errors. Brian 
actualy looked at my design in schematic and BOARD layout, so don't you 
dare say that brian doesn't know anything about it and I'll just try it 
and sell crap, HUH!

I liked the ESF because there was NO PIC to buy from one PERSON! You 
just bought a memory chip, a capacitor and a resistor, stuck it in a box 
or a cartridge, and called it THE Expander cause there was only one. 
This PIC deal blew up. I knew there would be problems. There is a 
MONOPLOY on the parts, and anyone who changes a wire on it seems to be 
condemned! Bull Shit! I though we were doing this work on our calcs as a 
hobby, not a buisness! The orders I take on ESF's and SPinTerfaces just 
barely paid for my internet access. Why am I on the Internet, to be on 
the list. why am I on the list? To build and design stuff for the calcs. 
Why, it's my hobby. Why take orders online, to help others get this 
stuff if they can't build it themselves and to sustain my internet 
account! It's an endless loop! My orders pay for getting more. I was 
going to save for a 92... Oh not enough money... an 86... oh not enough 
money... an 83??? still not enough money. I don't realy make that much 
profit here, so unless I start cutting into college money, I'm offline, 
so please!!! cut it out with the copyright crap. We know it all and 
right now, all the copyright laws are being followed to a T!!! We are 
FINNISHED with this stuff, so WHY CAN'T WE GET BACK TO THE REASON WE 
SUBSCRIBED TO THIS LIST... OUR HOBBIES!!! John fixed his mistakes and 
gave credit, but he kept his brandname, so you still condemn him, and 
now it looks like anyone who so much as moves a part on the board gets 
chewed out. I am not happy about this. No one stole anthing from Brian, 
but you make some people out like they did, so LAY THE HELL OFF OF US!!!

We need a separate list for DUST, a separate list for COPYRIGHTS, and a 
separate list for OPERATING SYSTEMS!!! Man, That would suck! cause there 
would only be about 4 or 5 people left on TI-H! You notice that the guy 
not debating is the one accused! HE KNOWS HE MADE A MISTAKE, AND HE 
FIXED IT, but you don't see that!

SHUT THE HELL UP!!! YOUR WASTING BANDWIDTH!!! YOU DRAW ATTENTION TO 
FLAWS AND COVER THE CREATIVITY AND INGENUITY!!! SHUT THE _H_E_L_L_ UP!
