Well, then there is the other option, if you have something that is retro, work on it and try to get it up and running. That is one of the things I'll be doing is checking out my old stuff, powering it on, seeing if I can get it working, box back up...

Still lots more to do. Try the creative or programming challenges.

LOL! Yeh that's about the truth. I was using the Wallstreet last nigt running 10.3.9 and wifi adaptor and you know, I barely missed my G4 12". To me that just tells me how cool the technology is when ten years later the computer is very useful. Anyway, working with my Mac Duo 2300 in system...

And glad it is more festival than competition. Just would like a place where we can see who and what happened.

Sure... seems like we located all the information from 2007 and I believe 2006 is still up. 2005 is in archives. So what was the final word on 2004?

The Thinkpad is a great little machine and worth using. Love the cool foldout keyboard on the thinkpad. There are actually a few G3's that I know of already available to use in the current Retrochallenge, and I might use some of these as "high end support/server machines" 1) The G3...

Endurance fools? LOL!!! What are you doing again?

Retro in 2005 was anything that was before like March 1993. EVERYTHING had to be from before that time. The operating system, the computer itself. So if you used a Mac you could use a Duo 210 barely and run 7.5.2 I believe was the maximum you could use. Newtons were just a little too young...

Nothing too difficult really... a basic summary page of these people did that, and possible links to programs or what they made (or pictures) from links of the basic summary. Does all this go back to 2005 or was there anything before that?

Welp shut off the G4 Mac's last night at midnight and now the fun begins. I'm thinking of getting my Duo 2300 working again. Well, correction, got it working, now to get my dock back out, get the internet/appletalk working again, and all that fun. Have we all basically established that the...

Original Gameboy from like 1990? I'd say definately. :D Actually the Retrochallenge is great time to fix stuff.

I like how simple they keep it. :D

Seriously entering anything would place you in the Hall of Fame. Call this a log of where we've come from, what we tried, and who was there. That is just as good.

Prison Board is still going strong with dialup and telnet access. Ruben is a great and flexible sysop. He added more lines to accomodate the additional users. You can find a variety of BBS games there, and a up to date BBS list for Atari and Commodore BBS's, and if other retro platforms would...

Need to look up the rules on the endurance challenge. I'm really torn on which computer to use this year... Atari 800, a Commodore CX-64, or a Newton 2000. Wanna use the Newton 2000, but there are no other Atari users on the challenge. :{ Need to recruit more.

VT-100 should basically get you around in the ANSI world, just minus the graphics. Been a while since I tried looking for a good term program for the model 100. I think the last time I did I used the basic one built into the Model 100, got on a BBS, telneted to a Lynx website and then got on a...

Ok, aside from my victory in 2005 with the Atari 800 (endurance), it would be nice to see what other people did that won. A good resource to give people ideas. Who won in 2006 and 2007? How did they win? These are questions I'd like to know.

I noticed Arfink and Gobabushka are looking to use a Tandy 102 in the challenge, that is cool. Do either of you have the expansion based that allows the Tandy 100 to display on a 80 column monitor and use 5 1/2 inch disks? That was a fun add on to the Tandy 100. As for getting on the...

LOL!! But it needs to be a Mac Duo connected to a mid-nineties quicktime camera.

Just saw the video.. really cute!! :)
