Managed to finally get hold of a personal unicorn machine! Been after one for a very long time! This is my Indata DAI. An incredibly rare beast from 1980. A monster spec that was reflected in the cost at the time. Lovely. ZX80 for scale 😁 (didn't have a banana)

A fix or rather an upgrade to USB-C power for the #TheC64... I've been struggling with reliability unit due to the flakey Micro USB socket. This mod which fits a USB-C power port to a 'The #C64' fixing the power issues and allowing the use of #RaspberryPi 4/5 PSU.

Genius.

The Atari 2600 was of course famous for having a fantastic version of Pac-Man.

A huge thank you to Andy Marks of @RISCOSbits for kindly donating a custom #RISC_OS 5 ROM image allowing my #Acorn RISCPC to use #NVMe SSD natively - meaning the machine now runs entirely solid state. This build should be at @tnmoc next month & @computermuseum in November!

Engineer's log, 4th #MARCHintosh 2025.
The absolutely very first working Macintosh was assembled on a protoboard using wire-wrap. Andy Herzfeld still has this on a shelf at home.
