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 peek at the remains of my once magnificent retro computer collection. :-P
This 16-bit gem, a TI-99a, is still running great with TV-modulator, Original BASIC module and European power-adapter. The only thing not original is the cardboard-box :-)

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.
IBM PS/2 E, first powerup after years, I9990305 - no bootable device found, the disk drive was acting up.

Just received my Newton eMate 300. Jonthan Ive's first attempt in traslucent plastic product design for Apple (if we exclude some earlier transparent case Newton MessagePads).
3 Newts in the collection right now.
The battery still works!!!
The plan is now to connect it to the Internet via wi-fi (I collected all the nedeed hardware over the years).
"Why in the world" are you asking yourself.
Because we can.
