[net.games.video] Vectrex: Hooray for C-MU

   I, too, would be interested in any info concerning the guts of the
   Vectrex system.  Anyone who derives such information, and is willing
   to share it, I would love a copy!!

                                     Thanks,

                                         Fred Taft

Three beers for the guys at CMU's Robotics lab who are digging into the
Vectrex.  I'd been meaning to do that for over a year; I love hybrid circuits
, have a Coco (6809-based) and might be able to help with the disassembly.
Where did you guys get the tech manual for the V?  I'll send a big SASE if
you are willing.  Anybody at CMU remember the Graphics WOnder worstations
built in early 70's by Brian Rosen and Stan Kriz (vector graphics & characters,
only 100x the Vectrex bandwidth; PDP 11/20 driven).  I was getting a PhD
at Carnegie when those things were in use; memory of them inspired me to
get 2 Vectrices and all hardware.	mike k
PS: Please also post Vectrex-related articles to net.games.video and 
net.micro.6809 (if technical).  Those groups could stand some action.
