- <snip> folks out The Solo II timing system sold by Manzanita Micro a number of years ago used a Motorola 6809. Actually, it used the entire motherboard from a Tandy Color Computer. If memory serves,

- The business of how MS-DOS or MS-Windows handles interrupts can be completely obviated by using a separate, intelligent card to do the timing. I'm sure such things exist, but I unfortunately cannot p

- Having it be a card could kinda suck though... Can't operate standalone, can't make it talk to a laptop (and who wants to setup a desktop PC in a van?), etc. If I were a timer manufacturer and I was

- Wow, way more interest in this subject than i thought possible! A lot of the negatives about timing with a PC has focused on using the serial port (set up to do RS-232 communications) as the trigger

- We designed our own beam emitters and track sensors to meet the specs of the high speed drag racing circuit. The response time is set to allow a light rain or loose airborne track dirt to enter the

- I agree, that makes good sense. I was thinking of it from this point of view: (1) There seem to be a lot of folks out there willing to use PC architectures and Microsoft OS combos for timing, living

- Everything you said is true. Any idea what such a card would cost -- you'd probably be able to sell a few hundred so I guess someone could probably develop and manufacture them for 10-15 K and make
