I'd never completed all of the challenges in Pilotwings 64 until tonight. Just got the last one, unlocking the bonus games.

You asked, you got: Welcome sparcy a Sun SS20 running Solaris 2.6 / SunOS 5.6 is now available in the https://icm.museum Vintage Systems UNiX Cluster. Thanks to RabbitHole Computing for providing the ZuluSCSI #retrocomputing #vintagecomputing

Fortunately all my vintage tech still fits in a corner! I have to specialize in little computers and teletypes now.

A work-in-progress project next: an effort to recreate the Intel 4004 (first commercially-successful VLSI chip, and the ancestor of the x86 architecture) as an open-source Verilog project... then actually have it manufactured in silicon.
The twist: two more cores, one of which is a what-if pipelined 4004 with binary compatibility but a big performance boost(!)

It's #Hackster round-up time, and here's my four for today - starting with a fantastic adaptive gamepad which borrows the flip-it-over lefty-righty switch of the Atari Lynx (remember that?) while also making it so you can move the joysticks and buttons around... without taking it apart, or even stopping your game.

Pixel logos I created in the early 1990s, using Deluxe Paint ("DPaint") on an Amiga. Back then, cassette tapes, diskettes and CD(-ROM)s were still hot storage media. 😃

my first retrocomputing local pickup of 2026: an Apple Newton MessagePad 120.
almost passed on this one, as i'm more interested in an MP2100. but the seller's photo showed that it was running NewtonOS 2.0, which meant that it is an apple-upgraded MP120 with an 8MB ROM.
this is a rather huge upgrade, because it provides the exceptional Rosetta handwriting recognition (and mercifully puts an end to the lame simpsons meme)
thanks lunar. i *will* remember my shareware feel!
