BBC Econet Part 2 - Build your own
Following on from the first video covering the history of Econet, this video covers building your own Econet Network with real hardware, and in emulation.
The first section covers building an Econet network, including getting an Econet interface in your Beeb, cabling and the clock box, we then look at building a level 3 server. The video then covers emulation, and an alternative file server for Linux and OS X, Windows.
If you're interested in the history of Econet have a look at Part 1 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GrtpuWxhHY)
