What's a good way to upgrade my Amiga 1000. I like to get it setup which would let me download Amiga software online and transfer the files to my A1000 as I do with my C64 and Apple][. I do have the 1MB memory expansion already. Is there something like the uIEC with the SD card from Jim Brain...

Anyone have pdf schematics for the Vector Hi-Res Graphics board [S-100] The usual websites didn't have one yet This is from 1977, a similar design as the Dazzler but much higher resolution,256x240 Although it's not color, it does have 16 level grey scale at 128x120, I think it was a nice design...

Anyone have some success with getting the right tools to setup a workflow for building a cross platform coding on the Apple ][ ? I found some tools already which I hope someone can give us some advice to build a practical workflow. While helping Evan from the VCFed museum on his Lego robot...

Anyone come across some 8212's with any strange markings. I bought these a long time ago, so I can't recall which parts supplier had them. The part# is 8212P but it has no vendor symbol or prefix And the datecode has TSL9445 I didn't think they were still made 20yrs later ​And the prefix on the...

[best viewed in1080p] The player screens are small cause the screenshot video extends over 2 monitors. I'll have to make another video later with my tablet so I can zoom in closer. I turned off the soundfx for now I promised some of you that I would give an update about this. This is the first...

I was curious about this. I was looking into building a Win95 box to run some old network games. And if anyone has tried to install Win95 on a faster motherboard. I seem to recall something inhibiting Win95 from being installed on newer motherboards, back then, when the newest OS was Win98...

I'm trying to find the pinout for this HP AlphaStation power supply, Part# 30-50662-01, Power Supply Unit (375-WATT). I've been looking online for the manual without any luck. I was hoping somebody might have some leads on this. I don't have the computer itself to trace all the connections. I...

Think there's any place left in the World that might still make Core Memory ? I know it's a stretch I've read that the ordinary Ferrite Cores that being sold aren't good enough - as they are the 'Soft' Ferrite Cores. You actually need 'Hard' Ferrite Cores which retain the magnetism, and having...

Was there ever a version of BASIC that supported complex numbers ?? This topic just came up the other day when I helped someone adjust their Square Root code. Basically, checking for negative numbers when you input a number to avoid a math error. Now FORTRAN and C has supported complex numbers...

Looking for Amiga 1000 Kickstart and Workbench disks I somehow misplaced them after being packed up for so long. I'm glad the A1000 still boots up fine, but until I find some disks I'm not sure if the floppy drive is still ok. I wasn't sure if the A1000 version stops at ver1.2 or ver1.3 Dan

Highway To Hex I've been fortunate enough to design the T-Shirts for VCF East for the past 3 yrs now. This design is another one I made to celebrate the event. You can see the official T-shirt which I donated time to make for the museum at the last show, VCF East 7.0, last month in May--...

I have some Core memory from a guy who worked at Four Phase. They're made by Fabri-Tek and he remembers these being used in some IBM system - the best he can remember. The really cool thing about this is that it's assembled in a way where it folds up. I have some pics at the links below. I'm...

Hi, I also have the C64NIC+. And I'm using an original C64 with 1541 floppy drive. I'm trying to get the WWW browser in Contiki to get online. It starts up with the website already in there, http://contiki.c64.org/ But it keeps getting 'host not found'. I ran the NIC-Test utility to run the...
