You're right, the Z80 is located right under the cart slot. Maybe using the shim cards?, how tall is the shim with the Z80 fitted in?, I'll take some...

Good to know. I try to burn my regular CDs on slow burners. I prefer the slowest possible. I like to collect early CD burners for that reason. No big...

Nice. Like the Visi/Mac/Windows display.

To resurrect an old thread, I'm trying to add an 8" drive to my disk writing system so I can write floppies for my Model II. I have an FDADAP and...

Thanks. XFCE is my default desktop enviroment Window Maker is my backup. MATE isn't too bad either. I still go in to my old CrunchBang setup just for...

My old business Pc had a Windows 95 shell in a 98se install I liked using it to remove IE4 and then do a full ie5.5 install, bloat was down and...

Unfortunately for me it's now too late to proceed with those steps as I ended up completely rebuilding the assembly. Now that you mention it though,...

5G is pretty small these days. And I agree that overall the typical modern distribution is way bloated; it's due to all these different libraries...

I have several IBM CGA cards. PM me a price offer and we can go from there. Shipping should be reasonable since you're not that far from me.

I have a Datamedia CGA card if that's of interest to you:

I'm pleasantly surprised how well this ol beast runs LO. My current install is 5gig which I consider quite bloated which I imagine would be pretty...

The IBM 55SX is mine. I replaced the power supply and tried recapping the floppy drive. Everything worked before the original power supply quit and...

It's fairly straightforward to build for the Kaypro, I don't have mine set up at the moment or I'd grab an image of my Kermit disk.

Not a disk image, but here's the files for a Kaypro II version. If you have a PC and a copy of 22DISK you can copy it to a floppy. ...

The TI-86 is basically a TI-83 Plus with a few extra features like a slightly larger screen (128x64 vs 96x64), support for lower case and greek...

64-bit OSes and their nominal increased size aren't the issue with bloat, once you start talking Web access. The browser process can take up to 90%...

OMG... just logged in to post this exact same request. This was my first IBM compatible computer I got in my early teens. I am I would love t add...

Ok I just tested my ORIGINAL drive and it writes just fine. I did a format and a disk backup, all hunky dory. It still doesn't store high scores...

That'd be the one :) Easy enough mistake to make. I've got some CTS resistor packs that will go into kits when I run out of the current packs, they...

Yup looking at my firewall logs, I get a hit from somewhere in the ether about every 5-6 seconds. And I don't return pings.

If the recordable media has a speed rating on it (like 2x or 4x), then you'll probably want to slow your burner speed down to that or near that to...

No promises--that thing probably entered the Hellbox 30 years ago. My recollection is that it was a simple rectangular steel plate with 8 slots (4...

You can throw a scanner up on the web and get a few hundred hits within an hour for unsecured web servers, many of which have already been owned and...
