@breakintoprogram.co.uk Ooh yeah, that’s actually closer to what I remember, maybe that was it! I do remember immediately missing the thumb wheel after upgrading. Going back to a directional cursor seems so clunky in comparison, and a touch screen doesn’t have the tactile feedback. It was peak UX!

@breakintoprogram.co.uk Of all the technologies subsumed by the fondleslab, I still lament the demise of the jog wheel.

@samsterdave.bsky.social One of Matt’s SAM HDMI units, they’re great!

@samsterdave.bsky.social On a bit of a whim I got myself one of the Raspberry Pi monitors for transient computing setups (I was in the official Pi Shop anyway so it would have been rude not to!) No doubt there are better options, but it has enabled me to do more Retro, especially handy over Xmas. Great with SAM, Speccy, etc

@jamie-b-b.bsky.social Dunn dah dah lun dah dah lun dah dah lun … Bonanza! 🤠

I’ve still got a few of my dad’s old Bert Kaempfert tapes, and better yet only some of them were recorded-over with Spectrum programs! 😆

@jamie-b-b.bsky.social Whatcha listening to?

@flatduckrecords.co.uk Hahaha. It’s actually a “mini” mince pie. But! It is a very big book. 😆
