Note that voting for this will end at the end of Monday (8/9)!
Hello Cemetechians!
A couple of updates to the well known explosive calculator project:
1) The calc's project codename is Project Blue Lobster.
2) The wiki is located at http://otcalc.wikidot.com/.
3) Most of the discussions is going on at:
http://www.omnimaga.org/index.php?board=118.0
4) Everyone gets to vote!
5) There are 2 branches to the project: OTZ80 and OTARM. OTZ80 is obviously a Z80 calc, and OTARM is an ARM based calc. OTZ80 competes with the TI-8x series, and OTARM competes with the TI Nspire.
6) OTZ80 will use the eZ80 chip.
7) Now we're deciding what the speed should be for the chip. The eZ80 is sold in 2 speeds: 20 MHZ and 50 MHZ. That's the poll for this topic!
There's a little question: Is the Z80 underclockable?
Vote away! Be sure to remember that this is being sold to the public.
Battery life, etc. should be taken into account!
P.S. Sorry for leaving you guys out! If you have any objections to the eZ80, please tell me now!
