No dice. I tried two different disks, one with FreeDOS 1.4 and another with MS-DOS 6.22. The laptop drive doesn't recognize either of them as a system disk.

This looks like something to sell at the #MITFlea / #Swapfest to someone who wants a project.

Starting to make my bin(s) for #mitflea / #swapfest next month. Hoping to get some gear from old curriculums and spare parts from projects out of the house!

@dnkboston Paul Perritt, bank robber in 1923, said that his crew robbed banks "because that's where the money is."

We plan to be where the highest aggregation of Mastodon converts will be already - stuff like #Swapfest and #PAXEast have a high nerd concentration - join the cult! :)

Idea: I'm aiming to run a #bostodon meetup april 19th, tailing onto the start of the #Swapfest season.

Do folks want to have a Boston #Mastodon meetup before that? Anything Big and hella nerdy going on that we could tack on to?

Like, #Boskone (SF con @ #seaport) this weekend or something. #PAXEast is in late March, maybe?

If this is your first convention or your tenth, you’ll find an open and welcoming gathering of people who share your same interests, talents, and love of anything to do with science fiction or fantasy!

Ich bringe nachher einen Einkaufstrolley mit aussortierten Teilen aus meiner Elektronik Werkstatt in die C-Base: u.a. Arduino Module, esp, Wifi, Bluetoothmodule, div. Bausätze und Lernpakete usw. #swapfest #Berlin #flohmarkt #zuverschenken

Berlin Swapfest @ c-base

I have - and use! - a Sony Mavica FD-92 that I got at MIT #SwapFest this year, and I'm now daydreaming about stockpiling working 3.5" drives just in the interest of #permacomputing (though maybe I'm getting that sort of wrong)

In reality, I never played Out Run as a kid. But I did play a *LOT* of Rad Racer on my relatives' NES, and I loved the game. I picked this up yesterday at the MIT Flea/Swapfest yesterday, after I packed up my tables and did a quick run over to visit some other vendors I'm acquainted with.

The sticker on this one reads $12, but the vendor told me to give him $10 so he didn't need to make change. Happy to do so.

Just a reminder: stop by and say hi at the MIT Flea / Swapfest tomorrow morning in Cambridge, Massachusetts! I'm happy to chat, you can poke at old and underpriced computers, and I might even convince you to take some free stuff!
