This Week’s New Hardware
It seems I didn’t get as much archiving done this week as I had hoped—the only items I added were:
- A ZX80 1-3K Byte RAM Pack. Not much to say about this; it’s a small memory add-on just like all the others. It is Sinclair brand though.
- An eyemodule2 camera for the Handspring Visor. In great condition and with all the original packaging and manuals.
- A Competition Pro joypad for the CD32. At first glance I mistook this for a Megadrive controller, but then I noticed the button count was wrong. Competition Pro were well-known for making aftermarket joysticks and joypads, and anyone who used the stock CD32 controller will understand why this model was so popular.
- A Stack Light Rifle. It uses the standard lightgun interface and can be used on any of the 8-bit home computers. The included stock and barrel extensions allow you to use it as a rifle or pistol.
- A pair of Atari input paddles. In mint condition and in the original box!
In other museum news, Gary has been doing excellent work sorting out the network and has also updated our office PCs to get us off Windows XP which becomes unsupported later this month.
Jason has restored our Torch Hard Disc Computer to life. It even has the original data on the hard drive. Very cool!
