Found a lovely Microsoft serial mouse to go with my #HP200LX. I might do a light modification to it to have it plug directly into the 200LX with a shorter cable. Why? Wouldn't you like to know.

think I might try my hand at making a silicone mould for the one (1) missing rubber foot for my #HP200LX. thinking of trying my absolute excess of white lithium grease as a mould release because I am so impatient

I'm slowly moving these old articles about #cga from my personal web site to the DOS games one. They focus on what #cga graphics are capable of. http://dos.cyningstan.org.uk/post/190/my-journey-into-cga-graphics #msdos #ibmpc

I'm pretty pleased when I get more than a day's charge out of my modern phone, but with two #IKEA #LADDA-branded #eneloop Pro AAs, I got four days shy of six months' light use out of my #HP #200LX #DOS #palmtop! Going back to regular eneloops for the next round, but I'm pretty impressed with this performance! 🔋✨
