Manchen von euch sagt "StorageTek Powderhorn" noch was. Eine für damalige Zeit sehr große und ziemlich schnelle Tape Library. Schnell vor allem, wenn man bereit war, das Kleingeld für das notwendige Firmware-Upgrade einzuwerfen. Heute hat's mir einen Imagefilm von StorageTek in den Youtube-Stream gespielt, in dem sie diese Library ausgiebig vorstellen. Kam 1987 auf den Markt.

In the light of #amigapril, here's level 5 of our 1992 #Amiga game Hoi. Having a #demoscene background, we wanted to create a crazy level with psychedelic demo-like effects.

Later, the level turned out to form a stress test for emulators and video compression.

The Word Is Out The next VCF SoCal is Feb 14-15, 2026!

Canon kennt man heute für Drucker, Foto- und Filmkameras. Aber Canon hatte auch mal Computer im Angebot, z. B. diesen AS-100: eine 16-bit-Maschine auf Basis einer Intel 8088 CPU, erschienen 1982. Gesichtet wurde das gute Stück auf dem VCFe 15.0 (2014). #VCFe #VCFeHistory #VCFe15.0 #canon #vintagecomputing #retrocomputing

So I went back to the Silicon Graphics O2 as I acquired the O2Cam. But then I needed the O2 A/V board, which I didn't have, of course! This ultimately led me into VCR capturing and recording! #RetroComputing #VintageComputing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYntYJ2-zAU

Got a new printer so I redid the artwork that covers the electric service panel in my lab. Looks much better now.

Ok, I spent yesterday afternoon trying to get #RAID configured on my #lenovo #ThinkPad #P70 - to no success.

I found this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyCC1NGe8a8&t=36s of the similar #p50 and configuring #RAID which shows the #BIOS interface but my P70's only show the "non-raid physical discs" I do not have an option for RAID volumes. Note I have upgraded the BIOS to the most recent version on lenovo's web site. Any thoughts?

I have attached 2 #screenshots of what the BIOS displays - I'm trying to configure the RAID on the two 512GB #NVMe sticks.

This old Apple II and Mac guy is really enjoying the #Amiga panel discussion at #VCFEast2025

Finally having energy post surgery to do some things again
