Just a quick update on my Thomson machines - I really need to get an SDDRIVE peripheral made so loading software on all the machines becomes a LOT easier. I'm also building the 512KByte RAM expansion for the MO5.

For the 2x19 pin edge connector, I'm planning on using an EDAC part 391-038-556-201.

And for the 2x19 socket connectors, I'm planning on using an Amphenol FCI part 87606-319LF.

All the possible peripherals designed by the community can be found here:

From earlier video (description maybe helps the video in search results?):
Something different ... un ordinateur Français!

The French Thomson MO5 uses a 6809 (same as the Dragon Data 32 and TRS-80 CoCo) and has 48Kbytes of RAM.

It has BASIC built-in to the ROM so no cartridge is required.
