Subject: Completely expanded "Cheese wedge" BBC Micro - just

Hi all

 

Has anyone ever put together a fully expanded BBC Micro (in terms of Cheese
Wedges)?   OTTOMH, there was:

*      Teletext adapter (useless now I know)
*      Prestel adapter (again probably useless)
*      2nd processor
*      IEEE interface
*      Z80 2nd processor

 

I think there were one or two others (Econet bridge?).   As a kid, I dreamed
of a BBC Model B surrounded on left and right by every cheese wedge going
(as well as disk drive, printer etc).   That said, I'm guessing the two
second processors couldn't be attached at the same time at they both occupy
the same port.

 

Did anyone put a setup like this together?   If so - any pics?  Any
problems?

 

Cheers
