Had a dream that I came across an unreleased prototype of a #Nokia palmtop / netbook computer from the early 2000s. It was small like a #palmtop but had a squarer profile like the #Psion 7 so when you opened it up it had a 4:3-like screen but its ultimate party trick was the complex internal hinging mechanism whereby as the device opened the calm shell separated from the frame, leaving a few mm gap all the way down the back of the screen and under the device. Why? They had invented a printer only a few mm thick that lived in the spine and it could print an A5 page. Just pure engineering insanity because they could. Peak 2000s Nokia

Zahlen, bitte! 8-Bit-Boléro mit C64, Amiga und NES gespielt

Das Orchesterstück Boléro wurde schon unzählige Male interpretiert. Besonders nerdig geraten ist eine Neuaufnahme mit neun Instrumenten aus C64, Amiga und NES.

PDA/palmtop fans take note: someone's doing a PCMCIA equivalent of the PicoGUS/PicoIDE/PiSCSI/etc., a swiss army knife I/O device but specifically targeting low-power host devices like the HP 200LX, Newton, etc.

modern WiFi! Bluetooth! USB! sound! storage emulation! all the toys.

not sure how useful this will be for PowerBook people, but there were enough PCMCIA Ethernet cards that surely one of them was based on the NE2000 that PicoPCMCIA emulates?
