  4. A question for retro tech bros:

    My employer is still using an OKI dot matrix printer, model Microline 620, and an Epson dot matrix printer, model FX-890.

    The OKI printer is not working, and the FX-890 will only print some screens, but not all.

    It's an older Windows system, but I'm not sure which one, might be XPS.

    In the "available printer list" all of the printer statuses are "idle", nothing in que.

    What can be done to get Windows communicating again with the dot matrix printers?

    TIA.

  18. Ah, the "S-100 Virtual Workbench"—because nothing says cutting-edge like emulating a 40-year-old computer bus 🤖💾. Who needs modern tech when you can play digital archaeologist in your spare time? 🏺🦕 Maybe next, they'll release the 'Virtual Abacus' for all the hipsters needing retro calculations! 🔢😅

  19. Recently I have been toying around with a lot of the old #PocketPC #GPS stuff.

    There are a variety of different ways to connect to a GPS. Some connect via the Compact Flash slot, some are SDIO, some Bluetooth and others through a physical serial cable.

    You also have to decide on what GPS software that you want to use and then find compatible maps.

    I'm still figuring things out and it is quite finicky but when it works it is surprisingly decent!

  34. Folks, it's time to stop being Luddites.

    The fact is the future of technology is here.

    If you don't get on board, you will be left behind.

    It really is inevitable.

    Look, I know some of you have questions about computer-generated images, audio, and video.

    Some even say it will put artists out of work. Or replace books.

    But that's just the way of the world now.

    We live in the age of convergence, driven by interactive multimedia on CD-ROM.

    It's just a matter of time before there's a CDi or CDTV hooked up to every TV screen in the world.

  39. Nokia 5100
    (2002)

    Tikras bekelės telefonas, sukurtas aktyviam gyvenimo būdui ir ekstremalioms sąlygoms. Tai įrenginys su unikalia estetika, pasirodęs gerokai anksčiau už šiuolaikinius atsparius išmaniuosius.

    ARM9 104 MHz procesorius, 725 KB vidinė atmintis, 1,1 colio CSTN ekranas, 128x128 raiška, guminė Xpress-on apsauga, integruotas žibintuvėlis, 720 mAh baterija, matmenys 108.5x49.5x22mm, svoris 104 g.

    5100 turėjo specialų guminį korpusą, saugojusį nuo smūgių ir dulkių. Tai buvo vienas pirmųjų telefonų su žibintuvėliu, termometru ir garso matuokliu. Nors viduje tai buvo Nokia 7210 giminaitis, išorė spinduliavo tvirtumu ir saugumu. Agresyvus dizainas ir praktiškos funkcijos jį pavertė sporto bei nuotykių entuziastų favoritu.
