I am a retro computer and bbs/early internet fan who does information security work as a day job. I am a bit of a retro-generalist though I do tend toward systems that I had or used growing up and starting my career. #tandy Color Computer, #commodore, #apple, but especially early PC. I am a former sysop and current open source developer.
Here is the second, and probably final one tonight. I’m going to work on a spreadsheet of items so I’m not posting them one at a time.
Microsoft Windows 1.03, NEW* in box - $400 OBO
The * is that the disk package has not been opened, all manuals there and the original shrink wrap is there, but it has partially opened on the top. Check out the pictures.
For this one I’d still prefer Saint Louis but if you want me to ship it we can figure out shipping cost.
Ok, so I made a hard decision to start selling some of my retro collection. I love the whole collection, I just don’t have time for some of the stuff to do more than sit there.
First up is a Vectrex, along with 2 games, a multicart, a couple of overlays and a PiTrex. Asking $500 for someone that can pick it up in Saint Louis, MO. I don’t want to ship, but will consider it if I don’t get any pickup offers. Please send me a message if you are interested, first local wins.
Anyone else who got a shirt at VCF Midwest this year find the secret message? (If you did don’t post the message though, let’s let others try first.) I do have to say that was fun!
On my way to VCF Midwest! Let me know if you are going and want to meet irl
Josh RenaudI hope you’ll enjoy reading about this little known protocol and the people who made it and used it.
I’ve spent years researching it, fascinated by the idea that my beloved Atari ST had something like RIPscrip, but better in many ways, years earlier … but I didn’t know it back in the day.
Four parts of the series have been posted so far.

As a side note, I have not read a lot of WWII books, but maybe it was pretty random since I don’t have a lot of books in there.
Such a good answer I’m off to recreate my account 🙂 (3/3)
Ok, so I actually received a great response from Readwise about it. Still not great to see in the first place but I’m glad they took it seriously.
“Readwise founder here -- so sorry about that and thanks for letting us know. We've deleted that book from our candidate set for potential recommendations, it will never show up again for any user. (1/3)
