  1. Sure I could keep up to date with the rather dull and repetitive news on my laptop, phone or tablet whilst working, but why would I when I have an #analogue tv transmitter and an early 2000's #Casio pocket tv? Somehow the news feels more important on this thing. Why is that? Even the brain numbing 'This Morning' feels important when watched on this thing! 🤷‍♂️🤣

  6. Somebody gave me this (CED video disc player)and a bunch of discs before we moved up here.Played some discs once before we moved then it stopped working after I left it in storage and moved up here. Finally replaced some belts and it finally works. Am I going to keep it? No i really need to get this in the hands of somebody that loves old tech and is better a keeping these things going than me. #VintageTech #CED #Videodisc #80s

  8. 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.

  13. @gloriouscow I have an O2. I set out to get an Indy, but got an O2. The O2 is cool, but everything I've used it for I could've done more cheaply and quietly and in less space with an Indy. Maybe get an Indy.

    Right now the O2 system is on the shelf because I needed space for an Apple IIe.

    Here's a gallery of my O2 in its various settings: flickr.com/photos/blakespot/al
