Glider Crystal Quest Uninvited Shadowgate Déjà Vu Déjà Vu II

My big #MARCHintosh push is done, in the nick of time!

Raisin' the bar HUH? FINE I'll edit my post too.

It's happened a few times when an Apple/Mac enthusiast acquires a PC but doesn't know what to do with it, what games are good for it? What sound card should you get? Here's my take on it, having used a: 386 SX25 in 1992-1996** Pentium 1 166 in 1996-2000* Athlon 600 MHz in 2000-2004 etc, to...

I appreciate you checking that out. I retyped it as best I could, with a horrible feeling that I left out a juicy morsel that is now lost to the sands of time. Here's the comment in question: About the PicoGUS (since I made that thread), some clarifications: 1) This is Ian Scott's project...

Ugh, I wrote a huge comment on the YouTube video but it got eaten up because I dared to put a twitter account tag in it. It needs to be fished out and approved by the person managing the TD YouTube account. Dunno who that is specifically.

Seems like that other device could use its own dedicated thread if it has this level of interest! It will make it easier for it to be found as well.

is the interior of that black box basically just diodes?

This is the video that inspired me to follow in his track (Adrian's Digital Basement) and install a RGBtoHDMI pi zero + hat + buffer board to first my Macintosh Classic 1, then to my Mac Plus and eventually to a SE/30 in an upcoming update to this thread. Project page to RGBtoHDMI...

I haven't tried that at all. Although I even have a blu-ray burner on my PC, I think I last used it to play a blu-ray in like 2010

Happy #piday Reworked and re-uploaded from yesterday - Comparison between my fresh PicoGUS and my old SoundBlaster 16 CT2940 with various dos games and tracker music.

This has made the rounds on youtube and on Twitter, so here goes an attempt to make a comprehensive thread about it. A Canadian computer called the NABU, which didn't have disk drive storage, tape cassette or anything (just a keyboard, joystick port and expansion ports for printer, disk drive...

I have one left from my batch of 5! Let's talk.

I pitched in this week. I have little to no internet in Apple IIs myself, but this transcends that.

I needed the "uneeded use case 4" today! I wanted to try something that uses a unix program (through raspbian running on the Pi3a on which the scope is attached), so I plugged in my keyboard, exited out of the scope view app, sent the video to my main desktop area (which has 3 monitors on my PC...

Every PC DOS gamer has lusted after the Gravis Ultrasound at a specific point in time near the mid 90's. It offered a significant audio sample quality boost compared to the massively standard sound blaster, SB Pro or SB16. What added to the frustration is that a handful of demos from the scene...

1. Tie wraps 2. A DB9. I used the 8/6 bit deprecated RGBtoHDMI and a TTL PC buffer extender board sandwiched in the middle.

This a hardware capture (video using RGBtoHDMI for capturing the original 1986 software for the left half parts, audio using the speaker out port) from a Macintosh Plus running Bogas Productions' "Studio Session" a music software for Mac Plus released in 1986 capable of playing back 6 mixed...

Use case #1: Clone my Mac Plus signal to a HDMI capture stick, a small lag is acceptable Clone that signal to a LCD screen, sub 1-frame lag is needed here. This is what I've been using ever since I build my own RGBtoHDMI early in 2022, to great success (you can check that out here ) Use case...
