Retro Computers

I had a lot of problems finding these drivers, but I finally found them. I wanted them so I can build the ultimate DOS gaming machine.

Ive put a copy of the drivers here if you need them! It contains drivers for Windows 3.1, NT 3.51, NT4, Windows 95 & 98

One of the leaving gifts I was given when I left my previous employeer was an updated version of the Stylophone.

Ive taken a photo of it next to another iconic item of the past 30 years…

I was given a Maplin VIC-20 voice PCB today from my Dad. Its based on the SP0256-AL2 speech synthesizer. Ive got some basic documentation for it, and made it say Beer!.

Model number is GB17T.

Photo can be found here.

I now have a Apple PowerPC given to me by Paul. I can now make some boot floppies for my Macintosh SE/30 and my LCIII.

Machine currently has Mac OS 9.1 installed.

I was lucky enought to visit the “Computing History UK” museum today. Lots, and I mean lots of interesting kit there. I have taken some photos of a very small selection of their collection.
