Greetings! Long time 68K owner / user, occasional forum lurker, and recent member here. After a several year 68K hiatus, I managed to find a bit of free space and spare time to devote to this former hobby
For the past 25 years I've been in possession of my father's 512K, which he purchased new in 1984 fully accessorized. After years of collecting bits and pieces, I finally realized a long-time dream of getting it online [8D] Current config / accessories as follows:
I wish the MacLynx or Wanna-Be text browsers worked on the 68000 platform, but c'est la vie. I'll have to make do with IRC, EMail, and Telnet... I know this is old hat and has been done plenty of times before, but that hasn't stopped me from geeking out on it
P.S., His hostname on my local domain is Steve. That's Bill to his left, an also very much online XT.
