Still reading, and more nerdy about Microchannel than ever.

Hi !

Don't know if I told already: I recently revived my IBM 5155 Portable PC (which I owned for over 30 years) along with an Epson FX-800 printer (I
owned for almost 40 years), Epson CX-21 acoustic coupler (dating back to Pre-PC-ages).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvwT7oTdIE4

Therefore my next victim ... err ... rework object might be one of my
PS/2s. As I read the Lacuna board has a notorious capacitor problem I
might dig out the 77i I used for early analog records to MP3 conversions
along with the IBM M-ACPA.

Being almost 64 years old and *still* not booked for retirement (unfortunately) my time schedule is quite tight. The job always comes in
the way. Yes - I am still working for the same company I did achieve my
PS/2 skills from. Will be 37 years by October 1st this year.
And - in addition - I spent most of my "silent years" PS/2-wise with
repairing hifi gear and record players. Where I accumulated a *huge* collection of almost 80 stand-alone record players + some in combinations.

This 5-year-old video might give some insights ...

For further participation in this group I went to eternal-september.org
I didn't like Google groups that much anyway - and it is not my style to
"feed the clowns".

Let's see what the future brings.

I have gone over to the dark side and I m playing with Thin Client
machines using them as appliance PCs on TVs.
Since they never get turned off and they don't need blazing speed, the
4-9 w power consumption is attractive to me.
My latest are a pair of WYSE 5020s (D90Q7) for $30 each..

is called signature, you may want to learn some net etiquettes while you
at it.

now you're trolling, grind that axe of yours sharp...

no just me, after filling my room with worthless gas i tend to reach the
helm of my mantra climax and words just flow away in a world seems to be
less round everyday *earth*, but why you give the crap anyway? is a
signature.

you have left the most important bit out "giving enough time in life"
time = space <-- is basic physics

I moved from eternal september to Kevin's NNTP server
(http://csiph.com/), but both of them work fine.

Google Groups was (and still is) useful for searching through old posts.
Their history goes quite deep - circa 1991. And while the web interface
was very primitive, it was convenient for some people. Unfortunately,
the API was also used by spam bots...
