Hi @CarrollMccz ! You can't say that and leave us hanging - what kind of old computers are you into?

My mother (who I was mildly estranged from) died recently and I found all my old stuff still packed away in her house. I've not had time to go through all the boxes yet, but I have a faint hope my old TRS-80 model 100 is still in there... That thing had a cool form factor! And a workable portable computer was a huge novelty at the time.

@CarrollMccz @Hyperiontrails Hi. I’m one of the older ones here now (i remember being one of the young ones but that was decades ago). I have my 8 bit micros still from back in the day plus a few extra I have acquired along the way! TRS-80 Model 1, BBC Micro, Electron, Master and then some of the 32 bit acorn machines…

@CarrollMccz welcome! We have at least one common interest, I like to try to repair old (Motorola based) macs.

@kitten_tech Hi! That's awesome, I'm more of an XP era girlie so been running a couple of PCs to play some of my favourite games from then

[kitten_tech@fosstodon.org]

@CarrollMccz mmm yes. I'm in a small community of people who play Team Fortress Classic, from 1999!

Hiya Carroll, welcome to the fedi. The way the internet ought to be!

I tinker with laptops so we have that to chatter about,
