  1. #Marchintosh and #DOScember are both great! We need a retro platform for every month! Maybe... #Amigust? uh, #STeptember? (sweats) #CP/May?

  3. Grabbed a $150 video scaler for $15 at the state surplus store today. Score!

    A little late for #DOScember, but we'll celebrate by streaming some DOS games anyways :bec_grin:

  4. For the final day of #DOScember 2025 I give you part 4 of my #IBM5150 restoration video series. With lots of help from the community, I try to trace down what IC(s) are keeping my IBM 5150 from booting.

    The IBM 5150 will return in 2026 for Part 5!

    Happy Jank-tastic New Year!

  5. Something seems off with the AMD 8088 CPU at U3 on my #IBM5150 that I am trying to restore for #DOScember.

    Pin 22 Ready should go HIGH when the CPU is ready to start executing code. The view on the oscilloscope shows high then low. Not good.

  9. 🎥 New #IBM5150 Video Drop 🎞️

    In Part 3 of my IBM 5150 restoration series for #DOScember, I check for the 4.77MHz clock signal on the motherboard and give it an ultrasonic bath.

    (Sorry about the choppy audio, not sure what went wrong.)
