[A83] Re: Stupid Idea?



An external harddrive for the calc?  Interesting idea, and possible to I'd bet, but for one problem...  Do you have any clue how long it would take to load something??!  Especially when you consider that any external of any use would probably end up holding more memory than the entire calc itself...  The calc would have to index the entire drive's memory before being able to use it, and anyone who's ever filled up even half the memory on a silver with mirage games knows how long it takes to sort through, say nothing of more memory through the link port...  You'd practically have to rip out the harddrive and reload the bigger one...  Or just write an app to allow communication, make it really really really quick, and hope that your audience is patient...
