Just bought a new bike. And an Amiga 1200. The bike cost more! Wondering if I now need a QL to complete the 68k set! (Probably not!)

I don’t imagine we’ve ever gone above 220v. I think that the power sometimes drops to… well who knows, but it’s got to be pretty low when LEDs start fading and flickering. Last weekend, the lights seemed okay, but that proves nothing.

After years of faithful service (I bought it brand new), my Macintosh Color Display seems to be giving up the ghost. The tube itself still produces a bright… Well. Image is probably the wrong word. Mess. And it's just about possible to determine that the Mac is doing something in the mess...

You’re welcome. Let me know of any bugs that you find.

How odd. It works for me. But my Itch account is still young - and apparently it can take some time for it to become fully live. Maybe also it needs to be zipped up? There'll be a new upload within the week anyway. I thought it might be a good idea to have an old-skool style manual and disk...

Writing software for ancient Apples. Will anyone ever run it?

Well - that’s the danger. It will already run on Apple /// in Apple ][ compatibility mode. I’ve been careful to keep it under 48K. It will already run on A/UX because, well, Macintosh. It will also run on Lisa, because, er, MacWorks. I’ve prototyped, very roughly, an Apple 1 version, but...

I feel almost as if I’m spamming this poor forum. I hope nobody else does. But I seem to have gotten stuck in a rabbit hole - and I don’t think I can get out of it until I’ve seen where it goes. I have a game on sale for modern Apple devices, Innecto, and a new version will be coming out...

I have an LCIII+ that I bought from new and played Doom and Duke Nukem 3D on. At postage stamp sized resolution. I love that machine - but it seldom sees use these days - although it's been recapped and upgraded as far as it will go. Because… Now I also have an LC475. And, as my son would...
