One copy extra for my recollection of the 128er Sonderhefte.

Have a load of manuals from the early 80ies for my different retros.
Just a few examples.

Received this from eBay.
Did code a lot with it in the 80ies, excellent BASIC dialect.

Alas all my code using it is lost as I unfortunately reused all the tapes containing that code.

It’s was going so fast that it was completely impossible to snatch the early bird, got constant error messages.
So snatched this one instead.

Busy today with assembling the Ultimate 64 Elite II in its intended case. Works and looks great!

Yay, connected to the global Econet. Acorn Econet over the internet. Connected via an PiEconetBridge.

‘Some’ reading materials…… (and yes, intend to use it to try to develop some own stuff. Will take some time)

Have the Elite 1 as well.

New toy received: the new Ultimate 64 Elite 2 board.
Now only have to find time to put it in a proper case and connect stuff. But it is a beauty!

Really maxed out the space on my desk now. Need to get an extra room.

Added a Cumana SLCD CD-Rom drive to my Acorn Archimedes A310.

A little reorganising to also permanently connect my new Acorn Archimedes A310.

Think this is really maxing out space, so no new computers for this desk 😉

Exciting new addition to my retro collection: an Acorn Archimedes A310. Expanded with a.o. ARM3, 4MB.

The start of the ARM architecture.

Now the puzzle to get color picture on any of my monitors and getting to learn the machine, but it is alive!

Digital Super Pak 2

Acquired this in an auction: this pack combines Pocket Writer 2, Pocket Planner 2 and Pocket Filer 2 for both C64 and C128 in one package.

Acquired Oxford Pascal for C128. A Pascal compiler that promises to make full use of the C128 memory capabilities.

And also for me this will be a future project after my present ones at least come to first release version.
But want to continue with this experiment and although C128 VDC is a very different beast than C64 I think it helps for inspiration.
