Quiet...But Not Idle

Not been around much lately (bad personal stuff) but have still been liberating with notable new additions being:

A pristine eMate 300 (complete with original PSU and stylus, and two spares stylii(?))

An Acorn A420 (for a measly £10)

A massive 28" CRT TV to hook my troublesome IIgs up to (managed to get a IIgs to SCART cable but my flat panel just doesn't want to know)

Also decided not to move house so everything came back out of the attic and is now filling my office up again. I think I'm suffering from beige overload ;)

Commiserations about the BPS, and felicitations about the liberations. As for your implied, and well-founded, doubt about 'stylii(?)', see here.

Nice set of conquests. You got an Acorn A420 for £10, wow that really is a bargain! Usually the A3xx and A4xx machines go for much more than that.

I'm reckoning your LCD TV didn't work with the IIGS as it won't be syncing at traditional CRT TV frequencies, which is what the IIGS outputs. I use a Philips 8833 monitor with my IIGS (it is basically a TV without a tuner in it, but with a load of AV connectors).

Very nice scores, especially the eMate and the Acorn. :) Hope that everything's going ok for you.
