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

I really need to tidy up!

I always love it when I find something like this when im given a computer.

Intel’s 28F010 CMOS flash memory offers the most cost-effective and reliable alternative for read/write random access nonvolatile memory. The 28F010 adds electrical chip-erasure and reprogramming to familiar EPROM technology. Memory contents can be rewritten: in a test socket; in a PROM-programmer socket; onboard during subassembly test; in-system during final test; and in-system after sale. The 28F010 increases memory flexibility, while contributing to time and cost savings.

This is a multicart for the VIC-20 which has 100s of games included on it. For a complete list and more information about the cartridge, take a look at www.8bitcentral.com/behrbonz.htm
Eslapion & Viande did the work on ensuring the games would work from the cartridge and EPROM, and Elsapion did the circuit design and original board layout.
For this batch, Phu of www.retrocomputermuseum.co.uk re-entered the circuit design into the PCB software, gathered up the parts and put the bits together. Being the guy I am, I personally assembled mine to say that 'I built this!' Also put my EPROM in a socket incase the software ever gets updated. I also dont like to solder EPROMS to the PCB.

The Nintendo NAS contains the following hardware.
CV860A Motherboard with onboard Via Eden C3 at 800Mhz
512 Mb RAM
400Gb 3.5″ IDE Hard disk.
3 * 100MB Lan connections
The LEDs on the front panel indicate power, disk activity and LAN activity. The power button turns the NAS on (funny that!) The reset button is not connected.
I’ve not put a CDROM drive inside the unit that utilises the cartridge flap on the front. Ive mounted the hard drive behind it instead.
The plan was to install FreeNAS, but I’ve now decided to put Ubuntu server on instead. I can then put a full Apache/MySQL installation on it and publish its website to the internet. I will put a guest book system on it, so visitors can sigh the log. Keep an eye on nintendonas.retrocomputers.eu . I should have the site live by the new year.

A Commodore 128D with model 1902A composite/RGB monitor in RGB mode for displaying 80 columns. Running the Reddit BASIC Week 2: Halloween Boogaloo challenge.
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.

SD2IEC is a hardware mass storage device using an SD/MMC card and interfacing with the IEC bus. It is based on the ATmega644 microcontroller from the Atmel AVR microcontroller family. The most prominent use of SD2IEC is emulation/replacement of aCommodore-1541 disk drive for a C64.

This is my Atari ST on my website. Its connecting via my Linux server over a serial terminal session. Its kinda cheating, but I dont have ethernet for my ST.

Popular in the 1970's the acoustic coupler was a device that allows a computer to connect to other computers. The first acoustic couplers connected to the phone handset and transmitted at a speeds of 300 baud as analog sound signals that were transferred to digital by the acoustic coupler.
I just wish modern broadband modems came in wooden boxes!

The DualOS Master Board from RetroClinic replaces the original 1Mbit ROM on the BBC Master 128. It contains 2 versions of the Master MOS, the original 3.20 that most machines come with, and the later MOS 3.50, with all the later versions of the utilities.
A switchable MOS gives the best of both worlds for compatibility. As was the case with the B+, and the Master when it first came out, because of changes to the OS code, software that accesses the operating system directly did not like the changes, and either ran badly, or crashed completely. This is still the case with the MOS 3.50. If you use only the later version, some of the games and utilities you used to enjoy and use will not work any more. Having both in your machine, available at the flick of a switch, gives you the most flexibility.
Both versions of the MOS have been correctly patched for the Y2K bug, so the year displays correctly from 1980 to 2079 - essential if some software was not written to be Y2K compliant, and you need to back the year off to make it run. Also, the DFS in MOS 3.50 has been patched to correct several bugs, and allow double density formatting under the DFS with the correct system calls. Add to that, the ADFSs on both versions of the operating system have been patched to use the Compact Flash Hard Drive.

The original Adam keyboard. The plastic has discoloured some due to natural breaking down of the chemicals.
