Man Cave NG :-)

Absolutely LOVE IT when my kids want to play in the man cave and drop their tablets and DS's for a while...

Clean up time before Spring gets here !

Well this is what the mancave looks like after a long winter and glad I got a few projects that were in pieces back up n running before the nice weather come along- my 1200T & 1200 wedge!

Getting my Radeon9250 with 256Mb video ram working happily with Picasso96 and my Mediator 1200 LT4 was slightlly short of agonizing but alas it was a defective Mediator that was the majority of the problem and luckily Elbox is still around to do the necessary repairs (actually a big thanks to Drewlio77 from amigaworld.net  for selling me his spare board while Elbox carried out the repiars).  So far my Apollo 060@50 with 32MB Ram, Elbox Fast ATA Mk2, SB128, and Spider2 USB with modded front face plate on my Infitiv case is working nicely with the exception of the usual amigan fiddling to get Workbench feeling  just right :-)

My 1200 wedge has a basic 3.1 install with Magic Workbench, Indivision AGA Mkcr2, M-Tec 030@50 with 32MB, and Subway USB working nicely for a very stable WHDLoad machine.  More fiddling as usual

Alas there's more to do and talk about but not enough spare time so I leave you with yet another snapshot of the mancave cave and wish everyone a great start to the spring season!

Man Cave Ramblings

So today, after starting one more of my retro computing projects while at the same time completing another one I took a deep breath and wondered why my newly built home office/ partial man cave is always in a constant state of chaos...well let's just say a tiny few degrees off equilibrium :-)

here's a quick panoroamic pic of my man cave/home office corner where most of my spare time is spent when not working in the other half to pay the bills, keep the Mrs happy & constantly entertaining my 8 year daughter and 5 year old son :-)

My Man Cave corner just newly constructed in my home office--Where nostalgia & modern computing brings: fun, happiness, cursing, sweating, and generally chaos

So can you see some retro goodness from your computing past and also some modern goodness as well ??? If so, welcome to my Ramblings......
