X68000CPUADAPTER-PISTORM

This simple adapter allows to use a 68000 DIP CPU standard into a X68000 machine. The measures has been taked on a Ace machine. It has been designed specially to use with the PISTORM board (Claude's Schwarz design).

Note:

This will electronically work with PISTORM but firmware needs some work and is not ready yet. Do not stalk Claude's or other developers, give these people some time to develop updates for this machine.
