Re: My retro corner
Christmas 1989 +31 years! A little less hair on the top of my head and a little more on my chin. Otherwise, still playing Double Dragon from the Power Pack (Disk J)
Merry Christmas everybody!

Re: My retro corner
that mouse wall holder looks really cool Thanks man, it's a bit 'agricultural' in build :lol: and maybe lacks a little finesse, but I love a bit of natural walnut! https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50569836008_f0288eaf34_c.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50570715447_3941495a5f_c.jpg I tak...

Re: My retro corner
And here's a true story for you... Some time during 1990 (I got the ST you see above for Christmas in 1989), I remember trying to flick a ladybird off the floppy disk drive door.

Re: My retro corner
Thanks all, it's taken about 3 months on and off to build the cases. I'm not the fastest worker! Your Spectrum setup is fantastic! Thanks dude, I use ZX-VGA-JOY to output the video for the Spectrum and it's very clear and sharp. It also has a Kempston joystick port. https://live.staticflickr.com/655...

Hey, if you're into retro gaming in general, here's a couple of vids I made about the 'arcade' style Picade machine from Pimoroni.
