Ugh. All I got was crap trick-or-treating this year.

Hit a roadblock. Need more sheet steel for the control panel. I like the direction after bending scrap aluminum. The piano hinge will be spot welded and hidden.

Speaker grill will be directly under the control panel. I think this little guy deserves a subwoofer.

I mounted the funky monitor and homebrew HDMI to TTL a few weeks back. I need to work on the 1v to 5v amp because it develops a DC offset and lowers the contrast.

Folks on AtariAge made a 3D model of the dissolving character belt of doom in the 1027 printer

3D printed a rigid master and made a mold, so I could cast in durable urethane. Should outlast the rest of the printer now

I can make a few more, so DM me if you need one. Easy to toss in an envelope.

My uncommon Philips P2500/P2000b is now booting CP/M. (Thanks PAW!)

Started off smelling like a rat infested barn, screen leaking acid goo and explody tantalums.

Built a PS2 keyboard bridge - no luck finding a replacement. It was fun guessing the protocol with no docs and beeping out the PCB.

Anyone out there have schematics, boot cartridge ROM dumps for the Philips P2000B/P2500?

Information is very sparse for this machine. The cartridge isn't compatible with early machines and seems to have some kind of multiplexed bus.

Last time I was in Portland I saw those out of control LARPers in the park. They to be preparing for a government take over IMHO.

Here are items that came with my hunter 1 or 2. Not sure how much of this is already online.

Who puts labels on disks this way. A total sub IMHO
