  10. Playing around with some Boing-alikes on different retro platforms today. Here's Shiny Bubbles from Xanth for the Atari ST, who also famously made the FujiBoink! demo.

    Running on my 4MB 520STm. 60fps smoothness is lovely.

  19. As someone who has owned both, it’s obvious the #AtariST is the cooler looking machine than the #Amiga! Those sexy diagonal function keys, oh yeah. But in terms of 16 bit computing, the #SinclairQL has the #Atari beat, by quite some margin! #Sinclair’s designer, Rick Dickinson, is the king.

  26. 1/2 @Judeau @stefanjl Because it is quite fresh. Well, adoption is quite poor to be honest in comparison to let's say c64 or Atari 8-bit (I don't have any influence on people), but I've open sourced library (C99, framagit.org/nokturnal/nfm), I've made docs about usage, which eases adding opl support along with player (it needs some more work as always). #atarist #opl3 #opl2

  33. A somewhat unusual "Macintosh" for this year's MARCHintosh offering...

    Here is my Atari 520ST running Spectre, a Macintosh emulator (or translator, perhaps more accurately) which features actual Macintosh Plus ROMs (user must provide) and in 1989 (along with Magic Sac which preceded it in 1986) was "the only legal Macintosh clone." Gadgets by Small, who made the device, called it 20% faster than a Mac Plus, with a 30% larger screen size (640x400 on the ST monochrome display vs. 512x342 on the early Macs). 

    The Atari 520STm shown here features an 8MHz MC68000, has been expanded to 4MB RAM (up from 512K), features an HxC2001 floppy emulator, an ACSI2STM hard disk emulator, and dual Atari RGB and monochrome monitors, switchable with a Monitor Master switchbox. The 12-inch SM124 monitor showing Pinball Construction Set for Mac is nearly identical to the early Mac monochrome displays in terms of clarity, the distinctive bluish P4-class phosphor, and its overall "presence." It is a very nice display running at a rock-solid 71Hz.

    (A similar series of devices, beginning with the A-Max, was released by ReadySoft for the Commodore Amiga in 1989, though I found the ST options more appealing, in large part due to the superb high-res, non-interlaced monochrome display the ST supported.)
