And thusly were the wise words spake by Teo Zenios
What I want to know is which platforms from the following list are allowed
on this email list (my collecting preference):
Timex 2068
Commodore machines
Atari 800/ST
Apple IIgs
Amiga machines (68K)
Mac (68K)
X86 (from my Tandy 1000HX ending at 486 VLB systems and Windows 3.11)
Software and hardware for the above system along with associated
problems/repairs.
Speaking of software and hardware for those machines, what
about *new* software and hardware programmed / created for vintage
systems? For instance, Mike Loewen had a card reader interfaced to
his laptop via USB port at the last VCF east. That demonstation did
a great job of showing me how punch cards were used.
Cheers,
Bryan
Is somebody going to have a cow if I bring up not so
common Desqview/X or
Norton Desktop for Windows questions since those are for X86 system?
Also newer exotic hardware (like high end video capture hardware for
example) that is not common.
During the 10 year rule I think everything listed was OK, now I am not so
sure.
If the list is reverting back to nothing but big iron let me know and I will
go away.
