my first experience with using a modern flash memory adapter on a retro device – the FlashRom 99 for the TI-99/4a. it’s quite an upgrade from loading programs from tape! it seems I need to clean the cartridge port on my micro though 🤔

why would you even try??

Picked up a pair of TI-99/4A. There’s just something about that wedge form factor – I would say it’s overdue for a comeback!

less esoteric, but more novel. running vim on the last PowerBook capable of booting Classic Mac OS

My HP 95LX and HP 100LX after transferring my documents over IrDA. Getting the 100LX was a pretty big upgrade – unlike the 95LX, it’s PC/XT compatible!

life is but the pursuit of running vim on increasingly esoteric hardware
