First Tweet sent to Twitter on VIC-20
Friday, March 5th, 2010

You too can be part of history as we put one of the lowest powered personal computers onto the Internet, and more specifically, with Twitter. The software is on cassette tape and runs on an unexpanded VIC-20 with only 5K of RAM. To put this in perspective, an average PC today runs at 3000 MHz and contains 2,097,152 KB.

My Atari STe is on the internet (Sort of…)
Sunday, January 3rd, 2010Managed to get my Atari STe on the Internet tonight… sort of..
It’s actually connecting via my Linux server over a serial cable. I’m running the TAZ terminal emulator on the STe, and connected over 9600 baud to the server. The server is running getty to host the serial terminal session. Im using eLinks to connect to websites. I can also connect to irc!
