    Longtime Mac user, Newbie to here and to Vintage.

    Welcome. You are on the way to addiction. :)

    My very first NeXTStation

    Had a friend working at SAIC for awhile, but he was the only one I knew from there, and I don't think he was ever on the hardware side. I got my two Galaxys second-hand as chance finds. They're just so much fun to use.

    Apple Network Server MacOS based ROMs found

    Which release of Rhapsody was that? Very impressed to hear it works. That label is fantastic to see. Also, sent you a PM.

    Stewart Cheifet, Sept. 24, 1938 ~ Dec. 28, 2025

    Loved Computer Chronicles as a kid (early 1980s, with him and Gary Kildall). Didn't understand a lot of it back then but loved it.

    First official C64 in 36 years

    Yeah, I broke down and pre-ordered a Founders Edition. I suppose it's part of the history now, and I do like that it's very self-contained. Never enjoyed the 64's original keyboard, I agreed with people who called it "overinflated." I prefer the 128 keyboard, but then, I also just prefer the...

    1400 power supply recommendation?

    I've had good luck using an iBook G3 power supply, and those almost grow on trees. (That said, my regular 1400 uses the stock supplied power supply most of the time.)

    8-bit Boléro (The World's Most Ambitious Chiptune?)

    The instruments and the virtuosity are all great, but I love how he does it all in a tux (and even varies his neckwear).

    New LC475 user - Questions on PowerPC upgrades

    I've generally found PowerPC upgrades for 68K Macs of questionable value these days. Back in the day they made sense to run software you couldn't run on your otherwise expensive hardware, but nowadays they simply make them into a poor low-end system. I have an Apple 601 card for my Q800 and I...

    The Texas Instruments CC-40 invades Gopherspace (plus the TI-74)

    Texas Instruments wasn't known for pocket computers or portable handhelds, but they did have at least two: the handheld Compact Computer 40, which then was shrunk and modified into the "calculator" TI-74 BASICALC, nevertheless still fully programmable in BASIC and thus qualifies as a stealth...

    A very special Mac Portable

    I'd love a clear one, but mine's an DVT prototype, so that's fine too. :)

    Last thing you did with your G5?

    I use my Quad for GarageBand and Photoshop, largely. Does great for that.

    Best printer for os9 (Mac mini G4)

    I've got a Brother HL-2070N laser printer that works great in OS 9.

    Help me ID these RAM/VRAM modules please

    The last image is a 256K cache. Goes in Power Macs. In fact, I suspect most, if not all, of the sticks in the third "middle" image are also cache sticks.

    Oblast: a better Blasto for the Commodore 64

    I was very fond of Blasto for the Texas Instruments 99/4A and recently even got an original Gremlin Blasto arcade board running. However, the TI port - though a lot of fun - hews very closely to the rules and limitations of the arcade original. This is my attempt at rectifying it on the...

    Intellivision Sprint anyone?

    It's not bad looking for what it is, but the Inty was my first console (as a Tandyvision One, https://oldvcr.blogspot.com/2024/12/composite-and-hard-reset-mods-for.html ), so I have many real Intellivisions here instead, at least one 2609 Master Component, a Sylvania-GTE Inty and a couple Inty...
