Casio F-91W - My old calculator watch died this weekend, and I needed a retro replacement in a hurry - so I'm now the proud owner of this. But suddenly I'm nervous of my up coming trip to the USA - apparently the F-91W is the watch of choice for terrorists!
And again, HMV, 1982 (via HMV, Oxford Street, London, 1981-1982 | Retronaut)

A lovely lime-green Lab8/e.
Isn't this gorgeous? I wish computers still had flashing lights and switches.

A prototype for a QL 'plus'. Oh boy.

The millionth Spectrum. I want this so much it actually hurts.

Unsurprisingly, one of these little Sinclair Spectrum keypads is on my eBay wishlist ...

Another Spectrum picture for the 30th birthday - an early prototype, before the name was even thought of.

I seem to be developing a thing for keyboard close ups here, don't I? But I had to share this, a beautiful ZX80 prototype.
Happy 30th birthday little speccy! Project for this week - dust off one of mine, get it working and take some more photos (via ZX Spectrum 48K - Wikidi)
Oh, and while we're on the subject of my eBay wishlist, I think this little beauty should live beside my Pet 2001 - if I ever get one at a sensible price. (via MZ-80K Personal Computer-Computer Museum)
Intrigued by this little beastie today, spotted one on eBay. A baby brother to my Dragon 32 - alas, also the runt of the litter. I wonder if even its mother loves it? (via Tandy - TRS-80 MC 10 (fr))
Spotted one of these today on eBay. Forgot how much I wanted one. If anyone is struggling for ideas for my brithday ... (via Gordon Reid's Vintage Synths - the Sequential Circuits Prophet 5 and Prophet 10)
Terminals are sexy. Pretty nifty article on vim/unix conventions as well.
Love the design aesthetic of those old terminals.
I have one of these sitting on a shelf behind me. I don't think it works, but along with my Pet 2001 I think there's a wonderful 1970's "Computers of the Future" vibe. Which is why I keep it. One day I'll put a goldfish bowl in it.
Here's a bit of nostalgia - me, Christmas 1982 with my brand new Dragon 32. I still have it here in a box, and my newer Dragon 64 has actually found a new lease of life, as you'll see from my older posts.
Well, I did it! Here's my 29yr old Dragon 64, brought at least a little closer to the 21st century. On the right you'll see a HxC floppy emulator, attached to a DragonDos cartridge - my Dragon now thinks the 4G SD card is a floppy disk. It's running WIMP, and the Tandy mouse is the finishing touch.
What I love most about this gorgeous retro terminal is that it has a tiny single chip computer slotted into a small gap between two cards deep inside that huge case. The BeagleBone runs Linux and can emulate all the DEC minicomputers that the terminal was once plugged into.
