@EposVox @aradiogurl I knew Calhoun when I was at Apple, so it was neat to see his original writeup at https://www.engineersneedart.com/systemsix/systemsix.html and poke around. To be clear, itโs not an emulator, just a static display that changes once per day. That said, itโs pretty dang neat, and if anyone wants to buy me a Christmas present, this would be a swell one! And thanks for posting the link that led me back to John. Fond memories. @EposVox I would love to see something like this with an emulator. Or even better: with a custom reimplementation of the original hardware. I've been thinking a lot about the Atari Flashback 2 lately... @robert_said_what @EposVox I just bought a C64 (2021 repro with USB and HDMI) - what does that say about me? ๐ @angiebaby @EposVox I saw that and thought oh goodness I remember using the macintoshes in school @EposVox so rarely @weyoundax Nah it's all these that keep getting sold https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=78H-4KqVvrg&embeds_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bitscope.com%2F&source_ve_path=MjM4NTE&feature=emb_title @EposVox I'm not too fussed about this, I'm more worried about the wastage of computers on crappy operating systems from 30 years ago, and don't even get me started on the e-ink display. A Pi 3 being used on this gizmo is just a shame. @weyoundax itโs a cool project! Wish it was running an actual emulator than basically a photo frame but |
@EposVox Okay, that's pretty badass.
