The Kaypro 2/84 has been a bigger challenge than I anticipated due to its leaky TEC FB-501 floppy drives. I think I know what the problems are at this point, so let's see if we can get this last drive working with the help of my IBM 5150. Saturday (14th) at noon eastern. youtube.com/live/4ZQLgx0...

My lack of enthusiasm for the Macintosh Classic is fairly public. Can we make it less terrible by installing a 68030 upgrade in it? Let's build HKZ's new Mini Performer Plus and install it in a Macintosh Classic entirely the wrong way. Saturday (7th) at noon eastern. youtube.com/live/oIT5QKR...
