#mockingboard — Public Fediverse posts

#TauntingBoard has finally been released!
It's an #Apple2 #MockingBoard clone(ish) with a few changes I'd dare call improvements.

It's free for everyone: print it, build it, enjoy it.

Thanks for #PCBWay for sponsoring not one, but two prototype runs for this board!

Boost if you wish (appreciated!) and/or donate a few credits via Ko-Fi if you want and have some to spare (Not essential, but they'll be used to help pay for components for future projects: believe me, they're helpful, vet expenses are eating away most of disposable income lately).

Having some Apple II time tonight.
