Should I purchase this? Apple QuickTake 150. It’s so awesome, but… #VintageApple #retrocomping #vintagecomputing #quicktake150

My #AppleLisaClone has a new front panel! I got one of the new Lisa 1+2 hybrid panels from Mac Effects, courtesy of @Recta_Pete

I moved the iPad LCD panel over to it and added some custom 3D printed CRT bezel gap fillers to fit the curve.

The thing I like about retro computing in general is that there was no "right" way to do things. People were just faffing about. So much interesting concepts.

What is your favorite mouse protocol? And why?

The previous owner of my Mac IIci kept using it up through about 97. They even got a new LaCie external drive about that time, containing a Quantum Fireball TM 1280S.

What’s really surprising about this drive is that it negotiated up to SCSI Ultra speeds (20Mhz) with my Adaptec.

Only comes about halfway to its specified media speed though. Spec sheet says 6.5MB/s, I’m getting 3.5.

Got #lotusworks running (off single floppy!) on my #amstradppc

Just about room to start a todo database...

Did the #Amiga have anything like major office software? What about industrial control applications?

I know it was famous as a game computer and a CGI computer but did it have any lesser known niches? #retrocomping

In all my life I’ve never been this excited to print the letter H

Lunchtime #Apple2 fun - fitted a Europlus with a PAL coder card. The video wire had broken off, so I replaced it. Now I have colour! #retrocomping
