I inexplicably had the title screen song (or well, handful of PC Speaker bleep bloops) to Striker, (1985, DOS, CGA) pop in my head just now. It is the first computer video game I've ever played, on an Amstrad PC512, as a child.

Anyone want one?
I already have a lot in my collection, so probably shouldn't get any more.

Wow. Seems like yesterday that I was removing Java 7 from Windows 7 computers...
... wait, I actually did that yesterday.
I serviced a computer that had Windows 7 that was fine for the customer to keep using for his particular application.
Storage SSD drive had become full and one of the things I did to clean it up was remove the Java 7 installation as the Java updater recommended it (as Java hadn't been used for the past six months).

The Beginnings of Portable Computing – PTA-4000 / KA-160 and the World of the Sharp PC-1500
The early phase of portable computing began when devices like the Sharp PC-1500 combined calculator hardware with a programmable microcomputer architecture. With accessories such as the PTA-4000 and KA-160, the device expanded beyond a simple handheld machine into a small but practical computing system. These components together showed that real computing tasks could be performed outside traditional desktop environments. A Pocket Computer That Was More Than a Calculator When the Sharp […] -

From Dust to Desktop: How to Revive Your Old #Laptop with #Linux
April 4, 2025 by Martin
Excerpt: "Here’s why Linux is the perfect solution for your old laptop:
- It’s Incredibly Efficient: Lightweight Linux distributions use a fraction of the RAM and CPU power that Windows 10 or 11 demand. This leaves more resources for your applications, making everything feel faster.
- It’s Secure: The underlying architecture of Linux makes it far less susceptible to viruses and malware than Windows. Plus, with ongoing community support, even old systems receive regular security updates.
- It’s Free: The operating system and thousands of high-quality applications (web browsers, office suites, media players) are completely free to download and use.
- It’s Customizable: You can make your Linux desktop look and feel exactly how you want it to. From a macOS-style dock to a classic Windows 2000-era taskbar, the choice is yours."#SolarPunkSunday #LinuxInstall #ReuseRepairRestore #OldComputers #Computers #EndOfWindows10
