Action Retro @actionretro.bsky.social · Feb 14

I've been thinking of starting a monthly-ish Philly area retro computing meetup. Any ideas where I could host it?

Frankenmac for attention

It's a Power Mac G3 beige desktop with a ridiculous mix of accessories connected to it - a translucent studio display, NeXT ADB keyboard, USB puck mouse and firewire external hard drive

Big shout-out to David (The 8-Bit Guy) for showing @actionretro.bsky.social and I around his new Time Rift Arcade!

It's awesome! I highly recommend going!

To whoever picked up our iMac from the free pile at vcfmidwest, we hope you make good use out of it! Don’t miss the free coupon we tucked away inside as well as some other hidden goodies 👀

Big shout-out to Sean / Action Retro, who not only makes fantastic YouTube videos, but also now offers the ultimate shirt for my regular spelunking expeditions to our local electronics recycler!

I had a Totally Normal encounter with @actionretro.bsky.social at #VCFMW. And got to meet a bunch of other great folks into retro and vintage computers! Can't wait until next year...
