Modern Retro computing

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the up-down-left-right-b-a-start dept.

Sebby writes "This is pretty neat - the folks over at retrosystem rebuild old computers/consoles with new guts inside. They have Amiga 1000, Atari 2600, and also NES systems, with lots of options for configuration. If they only made a Sinclair ZX81 with the same specs, I'd be sold!" I mean, who wouldn't want a PC in an NES box ;)

    How do I fit an ATX motherboard into my SYM-1 single board computer? It's just a bare board with hex pad and six digit LED display. Or my Bigboard II. It's a bare circuit board too.

    Oh, that's right. Those are REAL retro computers, not the plastic-cased mass-market junk that came afterwards.

      Olfactory computing. The next generation of the "Internet Experience". It'll sure as hell be unpopular with the pr0n industry... Imaging all those smelly tarts...
