Not retro in hardware but it is in who's on it!
Man-at-Arms is fighting Merman while the Intel Bunny sits there watching over things on my GPU on one of my workstations that is currently touting RED for Halloween!

In life you have to appreciate the simple & funny things, like when your teen & pre-teen daughters print out various #SouthPark balls meme's then tape them on monitors in the house. I discovered this one on my monitor tonight. 😂
Glad to see they were having a good & fun day!

The delivery that arrived Thursday has been opened, a #Commodore COLT PC-10/PC-20!! They packed it very well & it is safe to say it arrived perfectly, plus the machine is clean inside & out in great condition!! Next to do is boot it up, just need more free time for that.

A particular late 80's #Commodore computer that has been on my wish list for a very long time is finally set to hit "The Land of Enchantment", New Mexico (USA - yes we have to specify USA for many who just don't know) tomorrow, Friday!!!!!

I posted this before & had a few DM's that fell through so thought I would ask again.😁

Geez, I have a #Datasette issue, I keep acquiring them!
Today Fedex dropped off this GE Datasette. They are slow but there is just something about them that fascinates me from the time I saw my 1st one working on a brand new Sinclair 1000 in early 80s all the way up to today.

One of my favorite album covers (and album) that has been in my collection for over 40 years now, wonder why?😉

A couple new RAM testers have arrived, has anyone used these? For the price they seem like they will be a huge help with 8-Bit machines, I will try them out very soon on a project.
