Another post about #Apple #Powerbook G4 12" events from ~20 years ago.

#Hacking #wifi a late November evening of 2005. With a "larger" antenna and standing on a mountain to the north of the city.

I used an antenna made for point to point "broadband" connections.
A bit on the larger size than the popular "pringles cantennas" people used to make.

(Funny to think about that I ended up with a work in Cybersecurity a few years later)

New video! I'm starting to restore a very interesting Apple Macintosh Performa 630 in the DOS Compatible variant. It has both a 68040 Mac and an IBM compatible 486 PC in one machine. In the first episode of this series, I try to make it safe to run by replacing capacitors on the main board and in the power supply. More to come!

I learnt assembly on a TRS-80 model 100 back in the day, so I started collecting slabtops. One thing lead to another, and I may have gone a bit overboard…

Anyway, I finally got a Kyotronic 85 (the one that the model 100, the m10 and the pc-8201 were derived from) today, so I pulled them out of a family picture!

So, what is *your* favorite? Bonus: can you spot the intruder?
