The interals of my Atari Stacy, the first portable computer from Atari. Made in 1989.
This is with the internal shielding and the original hardrive installed. you can see some of the fluid that leaked out on the drive on the cover to the hard disk on the right.
Some of the instrument control computers and networking gear - this is just to the right of the original control computer
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.

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. :-)

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;
My old original A1200 MoBo ready for inspection and test
Following firing up the computer the 2.5" 80MB HDD appears to be working fine, though the internal Chinon FX-354 appears not to be in good shape.
All electrolytic capacitors on this board will probably need to be replaced, as the surface mount ones in particular have a bad reputation for leakage. Mine don't look too bad, though I think replacement would be a wise precaution assuming that this board doesn't turn out to be a "basket case".
Back when it was new in 1993 I seem to recall it wasn't 100% reliable in its operation, but that was a _long_ time ago, and my recollection is vague to say the least!
Internal FDD not shown.

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.
