    Is HDX still worthwhile with TipiPEB?

    Woah, looks like I dropped the ball!  It's time for a new program!  This one is called FLYING SHARK.  I warn you all now, it's addictive as heck, so play at your own risk!

    Here is a NEW game that took a few years to develop, that was released last Christmas.

    I'd like to upload the PDF manual shown above, by this site will not allow me to upload a 12.6 megabyte file.  Sorry.  Anyway the game can be played in Classic 99 or put onto a FlashROM or FinalGROM.

    Okay I finally found one...
    This is me in 1985 with an Atari 5200 display unit I later cannibalized for TI-99/4A use.

    I used the unit above to make the hutch with the 19" monitor for my TI-99/4A in 1987

    Naw.  The main reason I got that phone was because it was cheap ($5.00) and I could use it with my acoustical modem.  That phone had a funky proprietary connector so I had to add a couple of RJ-11 jacks to the cable.  The thing was, that phone would NEVER ring, which never bothered me much because line 1 was the main house line and the other phones on it would ring and I would just press LINE 1 and pickup the phone.  I would only press LINE 2 when I wanted to call the bulletin boards.  I always assumed the lights, hold button and ringing features were controlled some Bell System box I didn't have.  It served me well for about 5 years, even after I switched to a direct connect modem.

    Sure, that qualifies.  Let's open it up to anything that has a video game or computer (70's-80's) in it, either on screen of the unit itself.

    Not quite to that extreme no. What I did do back in the day, was to create my own book of spells for King's Quest III when I "Creatively acquisition" a copy to play for myself back in the day. I used First Publisher for the graphics and everything in it. I have NO idea whatever happened to it. I also remember recreating the logo for Sorcerian in First Publisher and it took me a week to pixel by pixel it in. Was quite pleased with the results when I was done with it. No idea where that file is anymore either these days.

    Kind of....I have a custom cartridge version of "M.U.L.E." for the Atari computers.  I bought it on ebay a long long time ago.  Maybe 20 years.  It was one of those things that once I knew it existed, I *had* to have it.  I probably paid way too much for it back then.  But MULE is one of my all-time favorite games.  It remains one of my favorite items in my collection.

    I have very few pics of me in general and even less so from back then. But here is one that I know was sometime in the mid 80s. This was at my step-dad's mom's house (Step Grandma?). Anyway, we would go over there quite a bit. This was taken in her kitchen. No idea what that robot is now, I'm guessing it was a GoBot that used multiple GoBots to form the larger one standing here. Anyway, that is a much younger me...

    😏86 or 87 Graduation, the look, to the boom box behind me to the wacky mushroom pattern wallpaper (my room was originally a kitchen) all scream 80’s. Note - the first picture is heading out to high school graduation dance and second showing my t-shirt is my happy return home.

    Okay, this thread has only one requirement, each music video posted has to have a video game or computer present somewhere in the video, either on screen or of the unit itself.  I'll leave it to you to judge if the music is worthy or not.
     
    To start if off...
