oh my, nice :-)

I used Apollo workstations in my last year of uni back in Belgium - very nice OS.

At work I have a derelict SGI Indigo... but not powered it up since 2001 I'm afraid. More or less a footrest for now :-/

But what the heck is an "Apple Wallstreet" ?

[quarkx]

I use too run an on-line store and the website www.thecocolounge.com. (its down now)
Strictly devoted to the TRS-80 Color Computer, I had so many coco's piled up in my one bedroom Apt, I couldn't walk in there and ultimately had to haul 40 big boxes of it to the recycle depo. At one time I counted 30 completely set up and running CoCo's in my living room. :madashell:
Now, I have 1 CoCo 3 left -512K-scsi 20 meg drive kit- packed up no FD unit or monitor left.NitOS-09 running(or was)
1 Tandy 2500 (not sure of the model its packed up-386sx 16)
1 Tandy MMPC unit upgraded to a 486/dx 100 overdrive and 64 megs of ram.These 2 were networked together with a few other Tandy 1000 at one time and were on the net just last year.

Amiga 1K No Power supply
Amiga 500-No A520

Amiga 2K- running fine.

cheers

[rrete]

Hey lempkee!


Simply Great!  :-o

[Tenacious]

Amigas are easily my favorites, see the signature.

I have rescued a few other machines that seem to be experiencing renewed interest, or have a following.

Hewlett Packards:  several Hp-85s, Hp-86 & Hp-87
Hp-85 was Hp's first desktop 8-bit computer, about 1980.  Sold new for about $3600. All-in-one design (display, printer, data cartrige, CPU).  Still Cool.  A company in California refurbs these and sells them on e-Bay for around $500.

Osborne 1: needs restoration and software

Apple:  Apple IIc, Quadra 605 (OS7.5.5), other pizza boxes, a G3 Biege tower, G4 graphite

Timex/Sinclair ZX81

IBM: an original PC Jr, 5150, PS/1 (PC Dos 7 & Windows 3.1)


@ Lempkee

I haven't seen you around much in a while.  If you've been away, welcome back!

EDIT:  It's not retro, but I just got Xubuntu running on a PS3.  It has some the excitement I felt with my first A500 in 1988.

[redrumloa]

I'll only list main systems in use or repair.

Commodore 128T (SuperCPU, 16MB RAM, etc)
Vic20
Commodore 64
Amiga 1200
Televideo TS-803H
Kaypro 10

>Here is my little collection:

Conspicuous by it's absence in many people's lists is the Atari 800.  Sold around the same time as Apple, it clearly had better hardware (audio/sprites/gr.modes/etc) and almost 2X the CPU speed of it's competitors Apple/Vic/C64.  For marketing reasons people seem to buy Apples/C64s more although Atari would run circles around them when compared at the hardware level.  Some of it's software still quite unique and never ported to PC.

I have bunch of Atari 8-bits and Amigas and a C64.
