Welcome to my new blog site

So I've decided I'm going to try to keep a ongoing blog. So I was thinking what would I put in this blog? What did I decide? Well the one thing I love is tech . So I've decided to start blogging about tech things, my hobbies and things I might find from day to day. Also would like to see what older tech I can use to update the blog from. So right know I'm using my tablet. I have a Samsung tab 2s which I've had forever. It's been a really good machine so far. I've lately picked up some older tech from thrift shops that I will blog about in the future so until then.

Reading commodork and remembering times that past

So I picked up this book on kindle called Commodork: Sordid Tales From A Bbs Junkie  by Rob O'Hara (Author) and it really started bring back alot of memories of when I got my first computer. It was a Commodore vic-20 , I loved this machine. So when I was growing up we didn't have alot of money. So not knowing it then, but finding out later my mom spent almost a whole paycheck do get me this computer. I still remember that Christmas opening it up. It was so amazing. I also got a couple games at the time one was a Scot Adams adventure game. Man I loved those, I also remember at the time cassette recorders for a computer were pretty expensive. So everyday i would type in a basic game from one of the magizines I had just to play it. They were some fun times. This book is def one to check out.

New Retro Tech August 21, 2017

So in the mail today I received my 32mb upgrade ram for my NEC MobilePro 750C. This was very simple to install and worked right away. Taking me from 16mg to 32mg. Next I received a Panasonic 8x pcmcia from drive. This thing is cool. I always wanted one but they were way to high in price back then. I got this for really, really cheap. One thing about this unit is that it runs on AA batteries or the included wallwort or you can get a rechargeable battery pack. Another awesome feature is that it has it's own speakers in stereo which is nice. I placed in a audio CD and it played just fine. I then tried to use it on my MobilePro but the included drivers do not support windows ce. It does support DOS so I might play around in DOS on the machine and see if I can get it working. If so I'll post a howto later on. This is def what I expected and work fine. I might have to look out for a old cheap or free windows 95 laptop with pcmcia to try on that. Pretty awesome t
