At a certain point in time your stuff is geeky high-tech, the next moment you walk into the „early telecommunications“ exhibition in a museum and there‘s your old mobile phone. 😆

This one almost pains me to post, I want one of these so bad. But it’s pickup only in San Diego, CA: A NEXTStation along with MegaPixel display, keyboard & mouse is up for auction! Current price is $61. Only a few days left, it ends on May 29th. For anyone close enough to San Diego, this might be a heck of a deal because the pickup only tends to go for reasonable prices from what I’ve seen.

I saw an inexpensive listing on eBay for a Logitech Sensa mouse last month, so I jumped on it without really looking at it - and the result arrived this week. As far as I can tell, "Sensa" was a sub-brand of their at-the-time MouseMan models, with interesting external finishes - I've seen wood-grain, carbon fibre, and... whatever this thing is, Damascus Plastic? #retrocomputing
Confession of an Amiga enthusiast back in the day: I always liked the black and white hires mode of the Atari ST, which to me looked slicker than even the original Macintosh. And I still love that "printed page" experience of environments like Medley Interlisp.
