Oh, das ist jetzt doch ein bisschen schneller gewachsen, als ich gedacht hatte. Bin inzwischen bei deutlich über 1 GB angekommen. Nur mit Disketten Images. Seufz...

Noch mehr Spaß mit Greaseweazle! Der offizielle StarTrek Afterdark Bildschirmschoner auf drei 800K Macintosh Disketten! Schon krass, was ich alles für Blödsinn in der Sammlung habe. 🤪😅

I was just listening to ATP Podcast, June 30 eposide, "And Do What?" (I'm a little behind in my listening).
The title is taken from the "Ask ATP" section of the show where someone wrote in asking what three vintage computers the hosts would like, if offered.
Responses were mixed, but early Macs and iOS devices were the main units discussed (and Casey's ThinkPads). Also discussed are those who just collect as an end in itself, and those who actually use these old systems. Getting them online was a big question for Marco.
I know I'm a little older than John, but I was surprised that no Apple II, C64, Atari 8-bits, etc. were mentioned, and I'm looking mainly at Marco who had the most to say about setting them up "and do what" then. How do you get programs onto these pre-internet computers?
I wanted to point out that there are a great many modern devices that make vintage computing much more approachable than the uninitiated may be aware of. I am the sort of collector that is primarily interested in using these systems, once acquired, and I have a room full of them -- most older than the systems discussed in the episode:
https://www.bytecellar.com/photo_pano.html
For most of my floppy-based systems, I've added various flash-based floppy disk emulation hardware and HD/large volume emulation hardware for others. Apple IIe, IIgs, TI-99/4A, Atari 8-bit, Atari ST, my Amigas, NeXTstation, DOS 486, Tandy 1000, etc. As well, a few "WiFi modems" (serial to WiFi using ESP32 tech) get passed around to let them connect to my modern systems or the internet directly. There's a great deal of modern, enabling hardware for those in the hobby.
I use these systems quite often. None are my daily drivers, but one or two is usually on, doing something, on any given day. I'm not browsing the web on these, but demos, games, chat clients, data (tracker mods, video, etc.) streaming -- there's even a Mastodon client running on my 5x86 that actually does the TLS locally and supports image attachments.
There's a lot you can do with systems rather older than those discussed on the show, I'm here to say. :-)

Booting from a Windows 98 SE floppy disk
-
How I remind myself to study my #college notes :D
-
I got the #floppy drive for my Dell #D630 !
First try booting the Windows 98 boot disk in my other post failed due to an I/O error, but all other attempts have worked (it booted up :O ).
#HaikuOS doesn't work well with it right now. Research turned up the fact that Haiku has a "usb_floppy" driver, however, and the D630 seems to use USB in its module bay. Digging around in /dev, I found a char special file for the device (see alt text).

Picked up some #floppyDisks at a #garageSale for a buck!
I also bought a floppy drive for my trusty Dell #D630 laptop's module bay. I'll be taking class notes on these... or at least backing my notes up to them so the drive doesn't make too much noise during class when I save.
So... which of these might be unreliable? Sony, #Fujifilm , TDK, #Maxell ?
The 2nd one in my hand doesn't have any brand labeling... gonna save that for unimportant stuff. -
I recall a floppy disk brand from the early '80s called "Verbrum." It was an offshoot of Verbatim, I am nearly certain. I cannot find any evidence that this existed in web searches.
Does anyone else remember this brand / sub brand?

Another #ShittyCameraChallenge example. These are another example of 1.3 megapixel #VintageDigitalCamera loveliness via a Sony FD85 #FloppyDisk based camera which was found (I kid you not) in a sopping wet camera bag here in Glasgow, on waste ground back during the icy hard frost days (yeah last week Ho Ho).
Works perfectly. #photography #FloppyDiskSquad -
