Mamma Robin, nesting in a pine bush in front of my house!:

Working on a Macintosh SE that will be going into a local video store that is soon to open! If all goes as plans, customers will be able to interact with it-maybe with a searchable Excel database of all of the videos? (DVD, Blu-Ray,VHS) If nothing else, it will add a cool aesthetic to the store!

Something different: helping my friend get his home arcade going. "Need for Speed" is up and running, and now it's time to get "Arctic Thunder" going. First step: replacing the two big capacitors on the wheel driver board.

Slowly filling up/organizing my nerd/project room. Still have a lot to go!

My Intellivision that I have restored to working order! I'm currently trying to get B-17 bomber working on it, with the Intellivoice adapter. The good news is that the game works fine; the bad news is that the intellivoice adapter does not. I have a never-ending amount of projects!

In regards to TikTok....did you know that you can simply side-load the app onto your phone, with out using either the Google or Apple stores? It's actually not that hard! I use Lineage OS (android-based) and have never used the Google play store (I can't stand Google products).

Welp, I figure that at some point, I should make a post so that my three follower know what I'm up to! After all, I do intend to do something with this account.....more than just use it as a place holder. So, I'll start with something I intend to get running again-an old Sym-1 computer!
