Huh, what's this do

Here we go again.....

Hot Rods!

Fighting with a cranky iMac G3 - might be a long day!

Early AM Bryce rendering time on the PowerBook Kanga! Correct me if I’m wrong in that we tend take today’s available processing speeds completely for granted...

Spent the afternoon refurbing and testing Disk ][ drives... so easy to work on! Two not quite happy, new caps and IC's on the way. With these and a funky //c drive and a troubled Lobo Disk ][ clone, I'm drowning in 5.25" drives needing repair! *happy sounds*

I’ve been spending time with software instead of hardware recently. I’m preparing a detailed blog post on the history of a 30+ year game franchise. Even if no one reads it, I’m having fun.

Now that the Kanga has been successfully setup with its 8GB CF card, I’m forced down the path of reinstalling all the important software again. This will surely take all day... but it’s a beautiful day to do it!

Don’t forget to call me on the QuickTake help line, let’s get those photos converted to JPG!

Guys, I just need a Macintosh Performa 600, a StyleWriter II and a blank check. Life would be, well... more than grand, am I right?!

Both 1400c and now Kanga G3 finally updated with modern CF cards!


Really wanted to use the mSATA SSD to ATA adapter but the Kanga simply wasn’t having it. Thankfully the spare CF adapter and card I had did the trick.


QuickTakes hidden behind the beasts..

Today is the day! I finally get to test out this QuickTake Panorama setup using the 150, 200 and the Kaidan Kiwi VR tripod mount!

Just giving this LC PSU a nice hot bath

Macintosh SE and Classic Reloaded projects updated in 'Hardware'!

Working on old iPods because just when I thought I was done, somehow, I always get roped back in to messing with them. It never ends.

Every machine is a smoke machine, if you operate it wrong enough...
