@PaulStoffregen @RueNahcMohr Yep. 1.x of Foundation definitely supports XC4000. Not sure which version of X-ACT introduced support.

[Rick Altherr @mxshift]

@ChuckMcManis @RueNahcMohr @PaulStoffregen I have more than a few

[Rick Altherr @mxshift]

@RueNahcMohr @PaulStoffregen I'll need to check what X-ACT version introduced XC4000 series support. I know v5 does.

[Rick Altherr @mxshift]

@_BehindTheCode @PaulStoffregen I'll be making an image of it and uploading to Internet Archive

[Rick Altherr @mxshift]

@RueNahcMohr @PaulStoffregen So am I! I've been building a 386 (well, a RapidCAD) to use as an X-ACT workstation for XC3000 parts.

@ElleArmageddon This thread is the only reason I come to Twitter now

[Rick Altherr @mxshift]

@noopkat I've been doing this as well. Wednesday around 11am. Grocery store is much less busy as well.

[Rick Altherr @mxshift]

@fpgahelper Lol. That was a trend that couldn't last.

Two different crossposters have stopped working for me after a while. I do all my posting on Mastodon nowadays. Guess this account will be very quiet.

@ElleArmageddon So cute!

[Rick Altherr @mxshift]

DOScember is nearly over and none of my systems are bootable. Hoping to venture out on Tuesday to find the following:

Dual P2 system
* ATX case
* ATX PSU

RapidCAD system
* Basically a complete 386 system except the CPU and coprocessor

UPS: drives right up to my front door, gets out, drops off packages and some branches they cleared from my driveway

One of these has a union.

Amazon driver: calls to say they can't deliver because the hill is too icy to drive up and offers to let me pick up my package from him in a parking lot in town. I drive into town and the hill is merely damp.
