CS/A65 computer - Caspaer and Gecko

30th anniversary! In october 1989 I had the first boards of this computer system up and running - and it is still running, although in modernized form. Watch out for more things to come (although in slow sequence as time permits)

In the last 10 years progress was slow, but still the system got the capability to use USB (NetUSB and USB), Ethernet (NetUSB, USB (+Ethernet), and EthOli), SD cards (NetUSB), a RAM disk (RAMdisk), a Blitter (Blitter), and many more updates. While not much more is planned right now, there will be further updates. Stay tuned!

The computer presented here is a line of PCB boards that can be plugged into a passive motherboard. The boards can be used in different setups, but the Caspaer is the standard (extensible) base setup. A special place has the Gecko that in itself is a complete, single-board computer.
