Title: I will donate $5 to the BYOAC for every MK64 sold
Post by: Ron_Michallick on June 02, 2003, 10:16:22 pm

I feel its time to give back to website from where most of my business originates.  During the month of June, I will donate $5 to the BYOAC website for every MK64 sold (new and classic models).

Thanks,
Ron

I decided to extend the offer through the month of July end of the year.
It's not too late.  ;)

Homestead wants $90 this year so it time to say good bye to them.

My new site is http://www.mk64.com/ron

Still kinda new to all this, so, is this like an Ipac or is there a larger difference between an ipac and your MK64?

Closer to an I-PAC/4, but the MK64 supports 64 inputs vs. 56.   Has macro programmability.  (less shift keys though, unless the new version changed that).  Supports the 13-input mechanical rotary joysticks.  Supports 2.1 volt LED's without a dropping resistor.

Well that's the high points.

It will support up to two 13 wire (12 position) rotary switches.

It does NOT work with the optical rotary sticks.

It also supports shift keys.

Adding support for the rotary sticks was really a great idea.  I went with the IPAC4 b/c your encoder was more expensive.  However, I'm not going to be able to add rotary sticks without forking over the cash for the Druin interface.  In the long run, I would have gotten more value from an MK64

Ron - I have a server that's got some space and plenty of bandwidth available. If you want, I can host the site for you in exchange for a MK64 or something?

PM me or drop me a line at railz28@hotmail.com

Thanks for the hosting offers. Two friends and I joined together to buy some cyberspace.

The new address should be online very soon at
www.mk64.com/ron

Yes, I got to pick the domain name  ;D
