I love cozy #mysteries. They're one of my happy places. I'm currently rewatching a good one...#MyLifeIsMurder with #LucyLawless and #EbonyVagulans on #Acorn. Great mixture of humor and mystery shot in beautiful locations in New Zealand and Australia.

Another one rescued from the Varta plague. New mouse socket, jumpers, headphone socket, external battery. All working nicely again! #acorn #a3000 #archimedes #retrocomputing #retrogaming #vintagecomputing

Case is cleaned up and degreased. Might vapour retrobrite it at the weekend. #acorn #archimedes #retrocomputing

OK so the #acorn #archimedes A3000 is in better shape. I can boot to a GUI but the CMOS won’t save. All traces seem to be OK so I’ve ordered a replacement chip. The mouse socket is corroded to hell also, so another one the way too. We’re making progress though. Desoldering the mouse socket was an arse. #retrocomputing

Might anyone be able to find the BBC Basic source of "A Meagre Demonstration" which is a Boing demo for the Archimedes - from back in the day? Asking for a friend.

As seen on the BBC’s computer news programme Micro Live. Broadcast on BBC One, 14 December 1987, presented by Fred Harris and Lesley Judd. Also repackaged in Micro File 2, episode The Generation Game.

Next patient for repair is an #acorn Archimedes A3000. Fairly bad battery damage. Already patched one broken trace between the keyboard socket and decoder. More to do, it goes to the supervisor prompt but is quite unhappy. #retrocomputing
