The Amiga never quite died, but entered a bizarre afterlife, morphing into a range of third-party PowerPC machines running AmigaOS-derived operating systems. Here is one in a convenient MiniITX case; it costs about £600;
this old Atari has had a DMA audio glitch for as long as I've had it. It worked well if I nudged the bottom of the casing just a little.
So now that the machine is out of storage, I stripped it right down and investigated exactly where the fault was. The weak spot was definitely just below the PSU, where the shifter chip sits.
I've always assumed the fault was a bad solder joint. But, no: reseating the shifter chip has fixed it.
I'm ridiculously happy that this old machine is now working better than it ever has.

A piece of old computer junk I'm working on. I'll either repair it or gut it to pieces to use for the one I'm designing.
You can safely ignore this photo (if you don't happen to be interested in retrocomputing, that is) ; it's one of those few I upload here to be used elsewhere. :-)
O local onde estava quase todo o evento (as palestras ficavam na Cinemateca). Esta foto foi tirada no final do primeiro dia do evento, por isto as luzes acesas e a porta fechada.
Dumping the contents from the varius RL02 diskpack present in the museum archive, using a MicroVAX II clustered with a simh system with VMS, the old PDP 11/34 of the museum, and the RL02 drive from the "new" PDP 11/23.

The ROMS containing the operating system. My TT originally came from Austria via Germany so it had German TOS from the beginning.
