Contemplation, and "new" toys

Great quote "the environment is too important to be bequeathed to the hysterical." from The Times last week.

So, some new toys have appeared (e.g. the slynkycat camera) and so I thought I'd post some pics of my project. Click the icons for larger versions:

and it actually works! Running System 6.0.4 !

I've managed to create some floppy disks of the OS and the two applications, and I'm currently attempting to order some real OS 6.0.8 and 7.5 software on the special 800k disks. I've got some memory modules and an RS232 cable on order too, and maybe (fingers crossed) some sort of Ethernet adaptor.

Maybe I'll be able to get my email on this machine in the next few months. Not bad for a machine 21 years old :-)

Of course the other end of the room, I have a 4yr+ old PC, and a nice new Vista machine, currently running a trial of Vista 64bit. Hey ho.
