Thanks to modifications to TSS/8 made by Josh Dersch we can running the timesharing system on an RK05 rather than the original DF32 fixed head disk.

Welcome “rsxie” to SDF Remote Vintage Systems! Thanks to decromancer’s QBone adapter we can do just about anything with this tiny LSI PDP-11/03
NEW VIDEO: How to create your own fun (yes, FUN!) personal database using GeoFile on a Commodore computer, with images added from your own GeoPaint pixel art. Our machines are for more than great games!
Old software is sometimes the best software. Keep that GEOS love flowing! https://youtu.be/rmhNnAPhlI4
Let me unlock some memories.

Did you know: Engineer Ronald H. Nicholson Jr. was part of both the Macintosh and Amiga teams, and has his signature molded into the cases of the Amiga 1000 and the early Macintosh computers.
New video! Trying to fix a wonky C64 board which has been worked on previously.

I have been slowly making some progress on my Amiga email client. I was able to connect to my local IMAP server and pull subject and sender info. SO much more to do but have to start somewhere.
My student, Zach, has been working to debug why our bottom tape unit has been misbehaving. We are fairly certain that the issue is a short in the interface cable between the top and bottom units, because the problem appears on whatever unit is on the end of the daisy chain. Stay tuned. But in the process of monkeying with it, there was a period of time where they both worked just fine! #dec #pdp12 #pdp #retrocomputing #vintagecomputing #umdpdp12

Probably forgetting and miscategorizing a lot of stuff but here's a PC-9801 series iceberg

In the sky above the iceberg is the most well known stuff; deep in the ocean is the most bespoke and ascended stuff. Next to each section is an illustrated picture of a guy who gets increasingly disheveled as we go further underwater, eventually he has glowing red eyes, then turns into some cryptid dolphin, and finally becomes one with the universe in the bottommost layer.

5” and 10” fans have a much more calming drone as opposed to the hundreds if not thousands of 2” screamers in the modern datacenter.
PDP-8/e and LAB-8/e are in thought.
