Web Programming and Design / Re: Simple Server Needed

This isn't too hard if you are just redirecting requests only and returning the output.
However, if you are trying to code a full blown pr0xy, then you should probably just use
PHProxy or other existing software.

I assume you are using PHP?

I think the easiest way is to boot into Puppy Linux, delete the file, and reboot. Simple, and a lot more fun doing it. ;)

Question: Have we found someone to put the calculators together properly? Because I think that it would be a shame if all the plans were worked out to perfection and the calculators couldn't be made because of that.

That's indeed a question raised by Kerm on Cemetech.
My answer: anyone good with building electronics. Kerm is kind of busy, but he does have access to fun tools :)
I can do some soldering, provided that I have some time and schematics to work with.

Congrats to bwang and apcalc for your promos! :D

[OTcalc] Z80-Hardware / [OTZ80] [DEADLINE] Voting deadline!
« on: August 25, 2010, 02:06:47 am »
Enjoying the vote and such? Great! But make sure you voted.
Voting will end this Friday, August 27th! So please make sure to hurry and vote! ;)
Note that new polls have been posted, so make sure to check them out, decide, and vote!

After voting ends, polls will close, and all the votes will be counted in both Omnimaga and Cemetech.
Results will be posted in the weekend or next Monday.

After voting is done, hardware selection will begin. Any hardware guru can contribute!
Eventually, we'll decide on a set hardware to build on, produce a prototype, write an OS
for the prototype, some QA for everything, then begin mass production. :)

Thanks to everyone who suggested ideas! Let's hope that this random idea from nowhere becomes
reality! :D

[OTcalc] Z80-Hardware / [OTZ80] [Poll] Do you want a battery indicator light?
« on: August 25, 2010, 02:00:45 am »
As the title says: do you want a battery indicator light?

Consider the pricing, the usefulness, etc. when choosing.

Note that the light can be under the power button, on the top, etc. (no actual decision yet), and
that the software can also display the battery levels at the same time (with the LED included).

[OTcalc] Z80-Hardware / [OTZ80] [Poll] Do you want a backlit screen?
« on: August 25, 2010, 01:55:49 am »
As the title says: do you want a backlit screen?

Consider the use, power usage, price, etc. when deciding.

Note that this includes both built in backlights, and separate backlights. Also, there is a hardware switch to turn it on.
(Can be controlled by software, if possible/needed.)

[OTcalc] Z80-Hardware / [OTZ80] [Poll] What do you want the screen resolution to be?
« on: August 25, 2010, 01:46:58 am »
As the title says: What do you want the screen resolution to be?

Consider the CPU speed, the cost of the screen, and the use of the resolution.
Especially consider the cost - you don't want the screen costing a half or a third of the total cost!

Note that the screen will be grayscale, and that the size should be similar (maybe 1/4-1/2 cm off) to the TI-83/84 screen size.

[OTcalc] Z80-Hardware / [OTZ80] [Poll] What kind of physical navigation do you want?
« on: August 25, 2010, 01:37:43 am »
As the title says: Do you want a touch pad (with the usual arrow keys surrounding it), arrow keys, or arrow keys with a small, flat joystick in the center?
(I'm referring to the Nspire's Touchpad, see here for details: http://education.ti.com/educationportal/sites/US/productDetail/us_nspire.html)

Think about how useful it might be, the cost, and support in the OS for it.

[OTcalc] Z80-Hardware / [OTZ80] [Poll] Wifi or no wifi?
« on: August 25, 2010, 01:18:12 am »
As the title says: do you want to have wifi in the OTZ80 calc or not?

Consider any regulations, power usage, etc. for this feature.

OK, so back on topic. ARM9 is our core then?
I remember calc84 was mentioning another CPU, but I don't remember exactly...

Do you think the box should be clear (like a toy box), or modeled exactly like Apple, just without the ambiguity?
