My Spring of 2017
« on: August 30, 2017, 07:01:30 PM »
Hi

Wasn't able in the end to update the website with the images of all my activities earlier this year so simply have compiled a few pages. I doubt I shall now return to the period earlier this year and can put all the photographs to bed. Means I can now have a rest.

That will be the last for a while

The Spring of 2017

You've got quite a few goodies!

From your first link, I'm curious, what's in the "Addendum to the A4000 User's Guide"?

Info about 68ec030 processor and installing a FPU. I suppose it came with 030 equipped machines, not with those having a 040 card.

Agree, well done Scuzz it's good to see the machines being cleaned, fixed and resurrected.
Lucky you found that A3000 Tower; Something that tiny would be easy to misplace.
26 A500s now that is a tad excessive... I'm sure you disagree.

Great stuff! I used to do the same thing, a few years ago now, when searching through my massive collection (all now gone, sadly).

It's good to see so much good stuff still (mostly!) being played with. Thanks for sharing!

Cheers,

Mike.

You don't know me do you ? I have as much of my kit switched on as I can manage each day and I lovingly cherish, repair, restore, maintain and 'share' with others kit from the collection. I write daily posts on my website of all the things I do and I spend each and every day lost to it all mucking around with the items that I collected over my working life.

I put a lot into what I do and I have spent a fortune putting together the collection. And I am very very proud of what I have achieved and continue to work with the computers. I hope that I can sustain what I have and keep as much of the computers working.

And sorry, I have been doing this a very long time and been posting about my activities for decades. I am surprised this isn't known to you. Must post more I guess.

One day, with my passing, I am hopeful the collection will find a good home. It certainly needs to.

You don't have to justify yourself to anyone!
I wish I had more time to enjoy my collection, but I still work full-time.

Agree. Especially magnetic... Once again having a go at something fair beyond his comprehension.

Are you married?

If you are how do you talk your wife into letting you keeping all of this?


I am definitely jealous  :)
