I deserve no praise, I have written *nothing* for it yet! Just got it Monsay, still learning the hardware.

mirrorbird (23:41:19)
what have you written for it?

mirrorbird (23:41:03)
that's not what i mean, plenty of wasteful consumer-types also like 'retro' (while it's fashionable) and then probably landfill it afterwards

edlinfan (23:39:33)
Probably none of us would be on nectarine if we didn't like the old stuff, right?

edlinfan (23:38:35)
Having to write an entire software ecosystem for it is a bonus Well, if I actually make time to do it...

mirrorbird (23:38:30)
it's bad enough with modern stuff, i get really upset when they 'recycle' a perfectly fine server bc they got a newer one. this should not be allowed.

edlinfan (23:37:48)
I have more useful machines (HP 200LX, Book 8088 etc) but I was looking for something cheaper and more easily replaceable.

mirrorbird (23:37:40)
i hate disposing of anything that still works. whether i need it or not (bring on the old jokes about the ZX80 as doorstopper)

edlinfan (23:34:33)
Haha this is my "poor man's Z88". Those are rare and coveted stateside, while a mailstation is ewaste prices because there's very little software for it
