Centroid Acorn Controller - Has anyone tried one?

[Benja]

Really good to see this, Ive been looking at the Acorn for the last couple days for my new Boxford, I should have the board etc sometime next week, Mine has a very similar atc to the one Chaz is using so I really apprciate the work you guys have done here. Hopefully i'll be able toprovide some input when Ive got it hooked up.


On a side note
After doing a bit of research into the required specs of the PC the Lenovo M92z ticks all the boxes the i3 is just over the single thread 1500 passmark and the i5 plenty over. Can be picked up for a lot less than a new hd touchscreen. Also seem like they have a normal motherboard inside so cpu/ram can be upgraded.

Lol I was wondering why it was cold in the workshop! :) did you get it working? Im about to buy my board from the French supplier, i think it works out about the same roughly maybe a few quid more in fact but i'll have it quicker!

I bought one about 3 week ago from Denmark 3 days from order it was here, but have not had chance to set it up yet, hoping to get into it next week.
