With sadness we mark the passing of Eldon Hall, who led development of the computer that took astronauts to the Moon and back. In 1982, Hall was the keynote speaker at the opening of the Computer History Museum: https://t.co/XvEI1z4lOb . @ComputerHistory @SIGCIS @vcfederation

@KariLawler Building more boards for my Acorn System 5 clone

[Steve Crozier @croz_tech]

@DominicPajak Nice... I'm just in the process of building up a System 5 clone

[Steve Crozier @croz_tech]

Just setting up MS-DOS on a 386SX... as you do 🙂

[Steve Crozier @croz_tech]

@KariLawler Back in the day you'd have pokey computer/game shops, with walls densely packed with the bright covers of games. Back then the actual graphics were far different to the covers, but great fun studying the cassettes or reading magazine reviews to work out how to spend pocket money.

[Steve Crozier @croz_tech]

@KariLawler That looks like Manic Miner ! Check out Wheelie... my fave game on the Speccy and definitely underrated! Let me know if you need the .tap

Just listening to @cathydennis Into the Skyline as I work out this morning. I had forgotten how brilliant this album is, both defining and at the same timeless.. truly great work ❤🎶

[Steve Crozier @croz_tech]

@DavidCWG @Stephen_Neal @acornproton Ditto, I got one about a month back 😊👍🏼

[Steve Crozier @croz_tech]

@DominicPajak A retro computing robot?

[Steve Crozier @croz_tech]

@MrTomsWorld Looks great 👍🏼 ... I love those coloured headers you used on the address and data buses.

[Steve Crozier @croz_tech]

@bitblitters @MrTomsWorld Here's some pics of thr program loader and battery backed SRAM memory. Note the "burner" socket for the EPROM programmer addition (which I don't have) and the unobtainable "Harwin" ZIF sockets with the lever at the back.

[Steve Crozier @croz_tech]

@bitblitters @MrTomsWorld It actually edited the contents of a battery-backed SRAM module, but there was an add-on EPROM programmer board so you could burn programs to a semi-permanent solution. Will post some pics tomorrow...

[Steve Crozier @croz_tech]

@bitblitters @MrTomsWorld BTW I have some spare Iss 1 boards, although will be uneconomical to ship outside the US.

[Steve Crozier @croz_tech]

@MrTomsWorld Nice... I have all of those except for the Movement Module and 2 Digit Display. If you can take some nice clear photos of the top and bottom of those boards I can add them to the 'to do' list 😊
