RickR Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 Here's mine. I have a decent TI 99 4/A with a speech unit, a 32K RAM upgrade/sidecar, the FLASHROM cart, and also the Atari joystick converter board. Pictures taken a while ago. This baby is currently in storage in my attic. - Ω - and Justin 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

- Ω - Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 (edited) I currently have two TI systems setup in the den. These photos were taken about 10 minutes before the timestamp on this posting. System #1: Main Unit This system has been modified and expanded a little. The console has an F18A and a PS/2 keyboard enhancement internally. The P-Box holds a 1Meg SAMS card, TIPI with an RPi 3B+, Triple Tech Card, 80 Track Floppy Controller and a Lotharek HxC SD card storage device. I mainly use this one for scheduling, BBSing, beta testing and anything that uses 80 columns. System #2: Gaming Unit This unit is unmodified, I use it mainly for a small amount of gaming. This one has also become my "portable unit". It has two 3D printed sidecars, the first is a TIPI/32K running a RPi ZERO W and the second in a speech synthesizer.

Airshack Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 My system is reverting to the PEB again because I just ordered TipiPEB. Love those flashing lights and floppy drive capability. - Ω - and Justin 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love those flashing lights and floppy drive capability. @Airshack my friend, I have one major suggestion for you when it comes to the PEB TIPI unit, be sure to purchase an SD card extension cable! Why? Well, for starters you'll be able to use full sized SD cards if you want, but most importantly if you ever have to reformat and reload the SD card due to a glitch, it'll save you a lot of hassle taking the lid off, removing the card and getting tweezers out to remove the micro SD card. It'll also be practical to run multiple configurations of multiple SD cards.

Airshack Posted March 6, 2021 Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 (edited) Where'd y'all get that? Just ordered one off eBay. Great idea. Edited March 6, 2021 by Airshack Justin and - Ω - 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

- Ω - Posted March 10, 2021 Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 @Airshack Now that you have your P-Box TIPI installed, make a DIS/VAR 80 (text file) in the TIPI root directory with the following information and tell me what you think. TIPIBEEPS BAR ON PROMPT=\c\p \g PATH=TIPI.LOADERS.;TIPI.FC.;TIPI.APPS.XMOD=XB28GEMG XBADDR=32325 ECHO ECHO Omit the text in RED if you don't use GEM 2.8 as your Extended BASIC.

DavidC Posted April 9, 2021 Report Share Posted April 9, 2021 First post, been lurking for a while. Seems like a nice and friendly forum! Anyway, here is my 32k "In the console" F18 equipped CF7+ Raspberry Pi 400 Mickey Mouse time keeping work and play station. It looks like they were meant to be together. Lol! A quick press of a button on the TV remote and I get full access to the Atari I/O forums and all other Googley stuff. It works for me! - Ω -, MaximumRD and RickR 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
- Ω - Posted April 10, 2021 Report Share Posted April 10, 2021 @DavidC WELCOME ABOARD! Nice to have another TI'er among the ranks! Hope to see you here daily! That F18A makes all the difference! Quote <<< My YouTube Page >>> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaximumRD Posted May 8, 2021 Report Share Posted May 8, 2021 Well you know I had it in my mind ever since seeing this thread to get around to going through my boxes and finding all my Ti stuff but as often the case life and priorities and crap going on in my life meant I never got around to it HOWEVER I just happen to stumble on this video I made back in 2011 for a Ti Facebook group and since really nothing has changed regarding the content other than it's all just been sitting in storage this is still as good a video as any I could currently make so I might as well be lazy and just share it here to represent my Ti collection. 😏😉 RickR and - Ω - 2 Quote I am Rob aka MaximumRD aka OldSchoolRetroGamer and THIS is my world http://about.me/maximumrd "For you, the day Bison graced your village was the most important day of your life.

- Ω - Posted December 15, 2021 Report Share Posted December 15, 2021 @Atari Creep I liked the video, it was entertaining, fun and I loved the plug for Atari.io. You know, from now on that is going to be a theme in all my videos, I'm going to figure out a new and creative method in all future videos to insert a plug for Atari.io.

Atari 5200 Guy Posted January 7, 2022 Report Share Posted January 7, 2022 Here's mine. Nothing fancy. Unmodded unit and three games. I have a pair of Amiga-branded controllers I use with it. Really small controllers but comfortable to use. Sadly, I've not seen any games in the wild for it. Which is OK because when it comes to older computers I'm more of an Atari boy. Not that I don't like it I just have more experience with Atari computers. RickR, - Ω - and RobertLM78 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
