It was a privilege to represent DOS/PC gaming at such a great event as the Long Island Retro Gaming EXPO this year. I ended up with 48 PC gaming setups for people to play (in addition to vintage IBM compatible machines available in other sections,) with 33 DOS games among them. And I'm happy to report that over the course of 3 days all games were enjoyed by people of all ages!

Here's a fascinating Russian video thankfully available with English subtitles:
A breakdown of an East German personal computer Robotron PC 1715 (1985). Includes a look at the components, OS (a CP/M clone), games, & then... interfacing it with a modern Linux machine!

Happy New Year
Happy New Year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You and I
