Friend just told me he has a Macintosh TV he wants to sell me! Fingers crossed it’s in working order. If it does, I might have to finally do that all-in-one Mac table at #vcfsoutheast 2026 with the TAM too

Just occurred to me that I could exhibit my #SotN versions at #SouthernFriedGamingExpo, which cohosts with #VCFsoutheast 🤔 🤔 🤔

Watching an Apple #Lisa documentary. Realizing that the compromises in the Macintosh system software were necessary to hit the price point where it could start building momentum. Lisa made the "correct" technical decisions and that's a key reason it was too expensive to succeed. So that was the origin of the OS design limitations that Apple eventually had to get a new OS to overcome. #vcfsoutheast #vcfse https://www.classiccomputing.com/Classic_Computing/Lisa_Film.html

Booted up Myst on the 7500, and after a few people did a few clicks each, one guy seems dedicated to finishing the game today, and that is Great. #vcfsoutheast #vcfse

It wouldn't be a vintage computer event without me messing up one of my installs 😆 BeOS no longer seems able to play audio or video files. Currently trying reinstalling the OS with a variety of steps to see if something specific is needed to make sure those drivers are in place. #vcfsoutheast #vcfse

Really cool that a number of teenage/preteen kids have come by and are familiar with the history of NeXT and BeOS! #vcfsoutheast #vcfse

Went through the first chapter of the first edition of Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X (the first Big Nerd Ranch book) on 10.1 on my B&W. Will see how far I can get through it during the festival. Maybe I'll even get into programming modern native Mac apps! #vcfsoutheast #vcfse
