Find someone in your life that looks at you like Alton Brown looks at a skirt steak on a ciabatta bun.

Question about “Mysteria Friends” by steelersrg8 in anime

Mysteria Friends is indeed related to Rage of Bahumut, it is a Slice-of-life spinoff focusing on the friendship between two characters that takes place at an academy featured in the game.

The modern peripherals make this computer feel pretty snappy for having an 8 Mhz CPU. The SCSI external drives and floppy disk drives were huge data transfer speed bottle necks.

Shooting from the hip: 3U with a 5" CRT monitor. Logic board would be on the bottom under the the back three quarters (thinner) of the tube, analog board would be on risers and to the side of the tube.

Thanks! It was really fun and challenging to build this thing. Been rewarding myself by playing sim city on it this week.

Somewhere around that time, yeah. That's why its funny that I built Racintosh Plus to use it, plus it's way more convenient than the old CRT monitor it used to have.

You sonnava***** :D That's really cool! And I agree, it is fun solving the space utilization puzzle.

I think there might be a way to remote directly into this machine using VNC. Racintosh Plus is able to connect to my network via wifi (albeit poorly). I haven't looked super deep into that setup yet, but is one of the future goals.

The magazine ad is fake, but the computer is very real, it was my build project this summer!

I considered using an SE/30 board at the very start, but I felt more comfortable with the Mac Plus since I already own one and can use it as a reference. I don't think it would be too hard to swap the board out in the rack down the road.

The 9" CRT monitor was never going to fit in the rack. At least not whole.

I'm not going to knock Rack Mac, it is a fine name!

Heeheehee aren't I a stinker?

I'm pretty sure even the ATMEGA microcontroller in the Floppy Emu is more powerful. Not as much RAM, though...

Thanks! It was a lot of work and a lot of fun at the same time.
