**ON A HUNT**
If you recognize the Apple II peripheral in this photo...you're one of the few!🕹️
And if you actually HAVE one, or know someone who does... Please contact me!! I have some friends in Paris who are searching for one and so far have had no luck.
💾 It's a 1980 VersaWriter, the graphic tablet I used to create the rotoscoped Karateka animations. 🙏 Sadly, I got rid of mine long ago.

I sure have been having bad luck with network equipment lately. So what’s my latest headache? Let’s find out!

Going to VCF Midwest next week? While I'm unable to go, a portion of my vintage computing and game console collection will be! My good friend Steve will be hosting these items for sale at his table (C216/C217), so be sure to go say hi and check them out!

Boosts are appreciated 🙇‍♂️

Hello all! I lost my steady gig a year ago, projects from my network are running out, and I need a job.

I’ve worked as an iOS dev for 15 years on cool apps like Camera+, but also building and running web and backend systems. Objective-C/Swift, but also TypeScript/next.js, PHP/WordPress, whatever fits the job!

I can work remote globally or locally in Japan (have PR)

Resume, Portfolio, LinkedIn etc are all at https://kalleboo.com/me

Hey friends,

I’m in need of a new job.

(No, YouTube doesn’t pay the bills. 😓)

If you know anyone who is looking for an experienced product/app Content Designer or UX Writer, please let me know! 🤞

Feel free to DM me or email me any leads, or repost etc. Thanks!

Ever have a project end up not quite meeting your expectations? That’s how I’ve felt about my turn-of-the-millennium vintage PC — and in the process of making it right, I almost killed it. New video!

I don’t think I have much overlap with Bluesky so I’ll ask here too:

Anyone out there have a newer Crumpler Brace laptop bag? I’m normally a Timbuk2 guy but my Commute is getting worn out and I’m not crazy about their color options these days. Curious how the Brace may stack up.

The mid-90s did not treat Apple well, and the company released some pretty, well, mid products. But was a seemingly mediocre model actually all that bad? Let’s find out!

10 gigabit networking is pretty hot right now…literally

Apple’s clamshell iBook G3 was as influential as it was colorful. But it was also not exactly the easiest computer to repair. How bad was it? Let’s find out!

Just a few years ago, a prolific enterprise firewall manufacturer released what should have been an incredibly powerful home WiFi router. Let’s just say…there were issues.

Decades ago, it was possible to build your own Mac using spare parts and generic PC components. Given the tools and options available to vintage computing enthusiasts today, let’s see what happens when old meets new!

What's the best laptop Apple ever made? For me, the 11" Air. Let me know, then also hear what @ActionRetro, @thisdoesnotcomp, @mrmacintosh, Computer Clan, @mac84tv, and @branchus had to say this #MARCHintosh! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpPIrmZB828

This computer hates me. The feeling’s mutual.

Instead of turning a clock into a vintage Mac, I turned a vintage Mac into a clock!, I though it would be fun given its #MARCHintosh The program can be downloaded here: https://github.com/retrotheory/BigMaclock

It supports US/EU month day order AM/PM, Invert display, 'grey' background and alarm function, it also has dynamic sizing so it will look correct on bigger screens

You may have heard of Maclock, a cute alarm clock that looks like an original Macintosh. But what if it could actually *be* a Mac? Let’s see what it takes — it’s not as hard as you may think!

@hkz Could you comment on how the release of your Flaccid Ostrich project will impact BMOW financially?

I found a Bose Wave radio heading out for recycling a while back. Let’s crack it open, see how it works, and discover why it was disposed of to begin with!
