L'8 luglio 2015 è stato presentato ufficialmente a Highgate, Londra, la nuova console di videogiochi ZX Vega. Basato sull'architettura del Sinclair ZX Spectrum, il Vega è sviluppato e prodotto dalla Retro Computers Ltd (www.zxvega.co.uk), un'azienda fondata da Clive Sinclair, Chris Smith, David Levy e Paul Andrews ed è stato finanziato attraverso una campagna su Indiegogo che ha raccolto circa 150.000 sterline, il 50% in più del traguardo inizialmente fissato. Io sono stato invitato all'evento, unico italiano presente, in quanto nella dotazione iniziale di 1.000 giochi compare anche il mio Cousin Horace, uscito nell'ottobre 2014 (per saperne di più: www.alessandrogrussu.it/diario-2014-10-01.html).

On the 8th of July, 2015, the ZX Vega, a new videogame console, was officially presented in Highgate, London. Based on the Sinclair ZX Spectrum architecture, the Vega is developed and produced by Retro Computers Ltd (www.zxvega.co.uk), a company founded by Clive Sinclair, Chris Smith, David Levy and Paul Andrews, and it was funded through an Indiegogo campaign which raised about £150,000, 50% more than the initially set target. I was invited, the only one from Italy, because my Cousin Horace, released in October 2014, has been included in the initial set of 1,000 games coming with the console (more on this can be found at: www.alessandrogrussu.it/diario-2014-10-01.html).

I picked up a silver Game Boy Advance SP at a carboot sale for £4, but it was very scratched. So I bought a replacement case off eBay for £6.
The Game Boy now looks brand new.

I believe its the same as the Slogger 400. Came with the Pegasus 400 ROM and T2PEG. No idea if it works yet.
It needs a good clean as it came from a smokers house. Im also going to replace the capacitors. I'll upload a new photo once I have refurbished the board.

This system uses the Intel N80186 CPU and has 1Mb of RAM. Sadly, currently has no hard disk, so I have to boot from 720k floppy.

One of my hobbies is collecting retro-computers, focusing on computers made by Atari. I have currently have eleven different Atari-models, three from Commodore and one other model in my collection.
The Atari TT was Atari's flagship computer, boasting with a 32MHz 68030 CPU. When I learned about it I always dreamt of owning one, but back then there was just no way I could afford one.
But despite moving on to PC the dream was always there to one day own an Atari TT. And in the beginning of 2012, I was finally able to lay my hands on one on Ebay from Germany. When checking it more carefully it turns out it was sold on Ebay from Austria a couple of months earlier. It was then equipped with an extra graphics card and that owner had moved the two extra serial ports to the case, that's how I recognised it.
To my absolute horror it developed some bad hardware errors after a week, crashing all the time and refusing to boot, but luckily it turns out that since this is a relatively early model, most chips are in sockets, so all I needed to do was to push down on some chips to make it work again. But since then I'm really careful about not moving it about too much.
I've got 16MB of TT-RAm for it now, replaced the cooling fan and the clock battery. One of these days I plan to retro-bright the case as well.
