Cherry MY Type 1 keyswitches. :cool:
 
I am pretty happy with it!

I have a really good keyboard or two now, a really good monitor, a few pretty nice computers...

I have several sets of speakers and several mice (mouses when its the peripheral?) but none that I love... Still on the hunt!! :p

I must have a full set that I love!! :mad:

Been messing about with Nuked SC-55 today with Dosbox staging. Sound Canvas is now fully emulated and sounds like the real thing. With Munt32 and Nuked SC-55 you can run the perfect emulated DOS setup with MT32 and Sound Canvas sound. I know there is also work being done on emulating the Yamaha MU series of Sound Modules too. Will be really cool if that gets emulated for XG sound. Pretty much all the main sound types are covered in emulation now.
 
I was never a fan of the graphical style of world of lemmings but I do love that boxart :)

I kinda got it for the rarety, was only £20 :)

Asked my guru mate about it :D

Nice, less than 5000 copies were sold of that one. Psygnosis nor dma share any info on it back then but the coder ( amiga port from pc yuck) is a good friend of mine daid bombed so badly that they hot basically no money from it.

I didn't realise it was a rare game, definite bargain at £20!
That's just reminded me of an old school mate of mine who had Worms Directors Cut back in the day who sold it with his A1200 to fund an N64 with Goldeneye! I never knew until much later that it was a limited 'end of days' release for the system

Missed out on that one on the bay, was about the same price too!

Another one I missed out for a fiver was Defender of the Crown CD32 edition :cry: . I can't check the bay every min
 
Nothing exciting but I finally acquired a long enough floppy ide cable to connect the floppy drive up in my XP based Optiplex 320
I do love the form factor of this machine and plays everything from that era (that i'm interested in) perfectly :)

I did add a not really era appropriate ati/amd 6570 to it as I wanted a low profile gpu with HDMI so i could pass audio via it :)

Hope everyone has a great Christmas and here's to many interesting finds in the new year!

Need to do more work on ATI AGP cards



Looking forward to trying this out - didn't have one back in the day



Not retro, but picked up for tri and quad SLI on a 790i board
