Yeah, if it were closer, I'd definitely come, but I'm down in South Carolina. And if I went with a car full of computers to sell, and returned with a car full of new computers to fix, my wife would be unhappy, as would I.

OK, I have the files up and all the documentation ready to guide people through the process: https://github.com/wottle/lisa-mouse-logitech-m185/tree/main And here's the Lisa logo version assembled. Will post photos of the resin version when the parts arrive:

Ha, I actually watched your video but for some reason I thought I was for the other swap meet. Looks like a very cool event, but given how many machines System Source seems to be selling, I don't know how many people would be interested in my machines. While my machines are all recapped...

Hey all, I’ve got a ton of Mac’s I’m trying to find new homes for (probably 30-40). Almost all work, but I have been selling them one at a time here in my local area but it’s slow going. I’m toying with the idea of loading them all up on my car and doing the System Source swap meet this...

OK, I have a good version ready. Just working on putting all the final versions of things in a repo and will be making assembly instructions and printing recommendations. Very happy with how it turned out. The main problem I ran into is printing the top shell. It is difficult to get a good...

So, with the main Lisa Mini project mostly behind me, I moved on to tweaking my Lisa mouse shell, with a wireless Logitech mouse innards. The version I’ve been using in my demo videos has been passable, but the buttons felt a bit sloppy. So I’ve been trying to optimize the buttons. It has...

Did you ever finish this or publish the models?

I built a few of these and never had much luck with them. I did put one together and sent it to another user on this forum who was able to get it mostly working on a Windows machine, including things like degaussing the CRT. There is some ambiguity in the instructions and I feel like I...

Here's a video showing what the LisaNet app can do for your LisaFPGA:

OK, made a video showing the latest (and hopefully the final) revision of the hardware for the Lisa Mini case. I also cover the software updates, including the previously mentioned USB support, as well as the new WiFi capabilities that I got by adding an ESP32 S3 connected to the GPIO pins on...

Added FujiNet support in the latest version, which can be used with Tim O'Connors FujiNet enabled apps. https://lisalist2.com/index.php?topic=884.0 So I can do things like see where the international space station is at this very moment! Very cool! And looking forward to using this to...

There’s definitely a black version when I wanted to not use up my platinum filament. You can actually see it in the part 2 of my interview with @classiccomputing in the Raspberry Pi version. It here’s also a version I lovingly referred to as my McDonalds version where I used some spare...

OK, With the addition of the the LisaNet module I added (connected to the LisaFPGA's GPIO pins), I noticed with my case and my software enhancements, the chip was getting hotter than it should. So I've optimized the software a bit (and removed a feature I wasn't using - 1024 x 768 support) and...

OK, worked a bit on the thermals. Basically the enclosure is a contributing factor, as are my changes that added clock generators. The stock firmware from Alex was getting in the 72-76 degree range. With all my original software changes, It was around 86 degrees during extended use. The FPGA...

So I 've been working through some issues I ran into where my ESFloppy was not working intermittently. After a couple of days of troubleshooting, I found out that it actually is due to the fact that my ESFloppy screen is broken. Apparently, because it is misbehaving, there is a timing issue...
