In the lab, working on a C64 board that my late friend ZXkim81 sent me years ago. I am not going to be able to bring Kim back, sadly. But I can at least try to make this machine work again. 🤞😥

After a bank holiday delivery delay, I finally got the new RGB SCART cable for the Archimedes 420/1 - fully wired, this time.

Still no picture.

Next step'll be checking the sync jumpers on the motherboard, but that'll have to wait until I've the time!

New video! I'm trying to figure out what the Amiga 1200 expansion board from my previous video actually is and then hopefully get it to work.

🌈➕ Exciting news! We've acquired the first specimen of the Sinclair ZX Spectrum+ (1984)! Functionally identical to its predecessor, it features a keyboard akin to the Sinclair QL. Improvements over the original include a reset button, legs, larger enter and space keys, and directional arrows! 🤯

In 1983, Atari Corporation unveiled the Atari 800XL, a home computer boasting enhanced graphics and memory capacities. Renowned for its versatility, expandability, and an extensive array of software 🎮, it swiftly became a darling among enthusiasts and gamers alike during the golden era of home computing in the 1980s. What fond memories do you associate with this iconic machine?

3D illustration for an article about reusing old PC's. Back then a PC like this wasn't yet as retro as it is now. 😁

I want to try to connect a SCSI Hard Drive to an AKAI Professional DSP 16.

Here are the connectors (photos). What kind of specific SCSI cable do I need? How to do it? I'm really not an SCSI expert. I'm a little confused..

  • AKAI: x 1, High-pitch 50-pin for external Harddisk connection
  • Hard Drive: HP 73 GB Wide ULTRA 320 SCSI - 80 PIN

Thanks so much! :0)

I got the "mystery" #Amiga1200 expansion featured in my last video to work! Turns out it’s a 4MB RAM expansion (upgradeable to 8MB) and an optional coprocessor. Very handy for a minimal WHDLoad setup or the likes. Thanks to the fast RAM, the gained speed is quite significant considering it‘s basically "just" a RAM expansion. #RetroComputing #VintageComputing #Amiga #Commodore

Ihr erinnert euch vielleicht an die britischen Alteisensammler, die vor ein paar Jahren eine unfangreiche IBM S/360-Anlage aus Nürnberg geholt und nach Großbritannien gefahren haben. Jetzt geht's denen genauso, wie vielen anderen Alteisensammlern: Zeit und Platz wird zum Geldproblem. Also suchen sie jemanden, der Interesse hätte, etlichen Quadratmetern IBM Mainframe ein neues Zuhause zu geben: https://www.ibm360.co.uk/?p=911 #vintagecomputing #retrocomputing #ibms360 #s360 #mainframe

Just taken receipt of a fantastic gift from my father-in-law: two bags filled with boxed Acorn Archimedes/A3000 games - including David Braben's Zarch!

Messing around with making a web site to do things with Lode Runner levels. 😎

Seems like it took forever but I've finally got something to share! It's the Lode Runner Level Exchange!

https://loderunner.retrobattlestations.com

Upload a disk with your custom Lode Runner levels and share cross platform with others. Download a collection as a disk image (#AppleII & #C64 currently) to play levels on your vintage hardware!

There are bugs, the site is ugly (anyone want to volunteer for web design?), but the basic concept is in place!
