Flap Flap Flying Toasters on Fruit Jam 🕊️🍞💾

We grew up with a Mac Plus/512K, so getting the Pico-Mac 68000 emulator https://github.com/evansm7/pico-mac working on Fruit Jam https://www.adafruit.com/product/6200 with 1MB+ of RAM was a high priority for those nostalgic vibes.

We've got HSTX DVI output plus PSRAM working https://github.com/jepler/pico-mac/tree/rp2350-fruitjam, which means 4MB RAM—that's the most you could get into a Mac Plus and enough to run System 6! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_6 Please note that System 7.1 was the pinnacle of software design, but System 6 was also pretty good. System 6 had some nifty features, such as the "Extensions" and "Control Panel" system programs, like After Dark with the famous Flying Toasters https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/After_Dark_(software).

Note that we're still working on audio, so you can see the high byte of the memory space used for audio that we've mapped into the video RAM for visualization. http://www.mac.linux-m68k.org/devel/plushw.php has more details on how that works - its 8-bit PWM audio reads "one byte per scanline." We'll have that output on the I2S DAC for speaker or headphone output.

What were your favorite extensions from the classic Mac era, and why was it Talking Moose? https://talkingmoose.com

Another vintage computer I wouldn't mind owning. This is actually similar to the Acer Aspire we owned in the 90s, but this one is more of a horizontal desktop type, while our old one was a tower. This particular model also appears to have a different software bundle too. #acer #aceraspire #windows95 #microsoft #vintage #millennial #generationy #generationx #nostalgia #computers #vintagecomputers #1990s #vintagetech #vintagetechnology #90scomputer #acercomputerexplorer #oldcomputer (at Spring Branch, Houston) https://www.instagram.com/p/CWR4w4xMgca/?utm_medium=tumblr

Packard Bell Legend 3550. This is the one my grandfather gave me back in the summer of 2004. Rekindled my interest in Windows 95 computers at that time. And this is also the closest I will get to posting something for #Packvember. At least for now. #PackardBell #packardbelllegend #1990s #90scomputer #windows95 #microsoft #packardbelllegend3550 #nostalgia #vintage #vintagetech #vintagetechnology #vintagecomputer (at Spring Branch, Houston) https://www.instagram.com/p/CWUC9wgs9wT/?utm_medium=tumblr
