Airwindows plugins are solid. Some are strange but there are a lot of good, useful plugins there. The ToTape series is great & I used Console8 (I think it was 8) on every track of my album Corruptor. #audioplugins

Dev update 4. This time I've shown off the Agon Ligh 2 / Console8 port as it's had a LOT of work in the last few days.
I've implmented full double buffering on the Agon to get rid of some flickering I was experiencing. I've also got interactions working...

Time for another image viewer for #agonlight #console8 - this time, PCX format. There are a number of reasons why I chose to display this format on the Agon/Console8.
* It is an already existing format
* The format is supported by modern tools, including #gimp

EU方面でブームを引き起こしているArgon Lightの改良版となるArgon Light2の操作をYoutubeで学習中。
Console8のMOS(command line machine operating system)とVDP(Visual Display Processor)をLight2で動作させることもできるらしい。
Argonから枝分かれして用途ごとにConsole8とLightにのれん分けしたように見える。さらにLightの分家がLight2？
基板上の部品の多さに少々気後れしている。
ハードウエア構成（回路図）を比較してみたい。

We have a 3D print farm, so we will use 3D printing for the enclosure. They are looking nice and it also allows us more flexibility with the design and design changes/tweaks over time or from user requests. We did this for the original Multisystem, MultiPi, Console8 and all our other products.
