SmartBASIC - A Coleco Adam Forum

Greetings,

I am Masteries, a new Coleco Adam computer user from Spain

using a shared Adam computer due to these are very rare here,
while ColecoVision consoles are more popular.

This computer were discovered in an attempt to create a
multiplatform Fujinet device, a version that provides hardware compatibility with
as many machines as possible.

One of these machines is the Coleco Adam computer.

Studying it, is a Z80 machine with 80 KB RAM with the same video capabilities as MSX screen 2 mode,
that is very good for a 1983 released computer

A discovery, tileset and sprite editor suitable to create Coleco Adam graphics (probably most of you know it):

By the way, if this board takes off, then you are going to be swamped trying to screen every post. Perhaps you should allow immediate posting initially, and if you start seeing offensive or disparaging activity, then you can always revert to screening everything.
From what I have seen of the Adam community to date, every one has been incredibly helpful and nice.

I realize that - I think I have it set now to not do that - am still learning the nuances

Looks great! I use a similar board for the IBM PCJr, so I'm pretty familiar with this setup. This will work perfectly for Adam users and will be far better suited to that purpose than Facebook or the AtariAge Colecovision forum.
