True, Book8088 managed to get my nostalgic part :)

I get ya.. Well, most of us (with exceptions), don't buy these things for "practical" reasons. :)

I don't know how true my test setup is, but works here. 8088 clone chip Paradise EGA 2a Windows 3.0 -- If you're trying to set Windows...

I somehow almost skipped 386/486 era, after conscription service i got me a Pentium 90, so it was rather big jump :) Here's the screen...

It uses base of Hand386, M6117 SoC, but unknown submodel so far. There's a breakout named "Parallel port" (but not "COM"?) which might...

I have a new story to tell :) I've got an ET826 multimeter, it has frequency measurement feature, that i used to test power line quality...

I wouldn't say so. V1 is easier to mod at least - for example you can connect RGB2HDMI to it with ease.

So i found one CH375B chip locally aaaand (internal speaker removed right now): How it looks ATM (prototyping now):

I wish i fully understand that myself :) The problem is that V2 doesn't have TTL CGA outputs on it's board and i want to have them. But...

Well, you already know i have 2 v2s, and 2 vga and 2 cga.. (I presume you didn't mean the standalone cga card).. What do you want me...

I have a request for community. Can someone with Book V2 and CGA card + some knowledge and oscilloscope try to find TTL R,G,B,I pins on...
