Hello everyone! This is my first post, so what better way to say hello than to show off my first (and only for now!) vintage computer - the PCjr!
Attached to is a Gotex emulator inside a modified Radio Shack TRS-80 disk drive running IBM DOS 2.10 (which in this picture is currently offline and just running via the BASIC cartridge). It's in beautiful condition and is a fun little computer (well...little by 80s standards anyway! It's smaller than the 5160 after all!). I also have a joystick and a Koalapad with an 8 pin connector for use with the jr too (you can see the program disk in the sleeve inside the disk drive's empty space).
It's honestly a miracle I got it - I originally wanted an IBM PS/1 from a listing on Facebook marketplace, but got stood up by the seller. With a stroke of luck, I managed to find this one and had to snag it up instead! The Koalapad was my addition to the original bundle, which included everything else and a K150-M keyboard (not pictured!). I'd love to end up getting all of the adapters, the two keyboard styles (chicklet and revised), an IBM printer, and with any luck, a cassette drive adapter (although that's the rarest adapter for it by far). I hope you like it and thank you for reading!
