    I did a little video of fixing an Atari 520 ST that had an unfortunate voltage mishap. Take a look and let me know if there's anything you would have done differently.

    Using TOS 1.04 from a Gotek

    Anyone know how to do it? I have an image file, but my gotek gives error 31 - invalid image file. Doesn't seem to matter where I get the image from. Thoughts?

    Request for "STAR" Apple II Clone - need for Reverse Engineering

    Does anyone happen to have a working STAR Apple II clone that has the keyboard encoder chip C33106E DF-2100 on it? I have seen several of these fly by recently with non-working keyboard encoder chips and I would like to reverse engineer the chip. I have an already working encoder project...
