The Last Psion | AlexMar 11, 2023

Did you write code for #Psion machines in the #80s and #90s?

We're calling for you to open source your code!

I'm working with a group of enthusiasts, building a library of information about the SIBO/EPOC16 platform. Your old code could give valuable insight, as well as encourage people to write new code.

We're especially interested in old C and #x86 #assembly.

Upload it to your public repository of choice, and set it free!

@pitchingniblick @benc Prestel! Wow, that's going back. I've seen quite a few old ISP email addresses and websites on my travels through computer archeology. Freeserve, CIX, CompuServe, Demon, Pipex...
