LaserWriter II was a fun read

I was sad OpenBSD wouldn't work on the original Raspberry Pi Zero since it was based on the original Pi 1 and we no longer have an armv6 port, but the Pi Zero 2 is based on the Pi 3 which is supported by OpenBSD/arm64 so hopefully it will work on this. I have one pre-ordered...

After selling 21 of them, I only have one WiFiStation kit remaining and I will probably not be making/selling any more (myself, anyway)

I've returned to System 6 programming again after a hiatus. Recently I made a small revision control system called Amend to manage the code that I write on my Mac.

When you write a bunch of code at once and don't trust that it won't bomb the computer so you single-step through every line in the debugger to inspect variables along the way and it's actually working

This poor thing must take forever to boot

I even got this StyleWriter II and a new ink cartridge just so I could print the registration form from my Mac

Darn, I tried to register my 26-year old copy of ZTerm but it was returned to me

I'm loving all these ancient desktops being uploaded

The Intel Compute Stick was a small x86 alternative to the Raspberry Pi. They're discontinued now but are only ~$50 on eBay for a dual-core 1.4Ghz Atom, 2GB RAM and a 32GB SDMMC disk, and they run OpenBSD fine (and the drivers actually work)

Turns out it's Apple's Communications Toolbox and the only way to remove it is to find its installer, copy it to a boot disk, reboot to it, run it, hold down Option, and the Install button will change to Remove.
