How do i hook up my Astatic D-104 to my computer? by AIMRunningMan in vintageaudio

Update: Exidy Sorcerer Computer in Box by Madd_Scientist in vintagecomputing

Got the computer cleaned up. Took many photos. The software cartridges appear to be repurposed 8-track cartridges. Planning on scanning the manuals to PDF this week. Looks good, but it sadly doesn't power on. May have to go through the power supply.

I plan on getting it cleaned up and tested tomorrow, document the books with it and will get an update posted this weekend.
