#modernretro — Public Fediverse posts

I'm still having a blast with Quicktake for Apple II from @colin_mcmillen. It's pretty cool (and rather geeky) to be walking around in public these days with a QuickTake 200 in my pocket. :-P

And new features are on the way...

Using software written in 2026 (by @colin_mcmillen) on a computer released in 1983 to extract digital photos from a digital camera released in 1994.

Apple QuickTake 200 connected via serial to my 128K enhanced Apple IIe (video output via composite to CRT and to LCD via VidHD video card) with "large" volumes mounted via CFFA3000 flash storage card.

The 640x480 camera images (JPEGs) are decoded and scaled for display in the double high-res graphics mode at 560x192 monochrome pixels. Just lovely.

Just read about this pretty awesome project, View IIc, a wireless Remote Desktop solution for the Apple //c. The hardware uses an ESP32 and plugs into the //c's RGB port, sending the 14MHz video bitstream to a Windows PC.

This is a work-in-progress by Mike Neil (who calls its current status alpha), and I'm excited to see how this evolves.

The link is to his Facebook post, but is readable without being logged in.
