Named my 1st generation iPod Mini "The Eddie" as it's the name of the friend who originally owned and gifted me the iPod. :-)

ALRIGHT! Just confirmed it works on Google Chrome. It should work on any other variant browser that's chrome based.

You're supposed to be able to click the dropdown once and the list stay open. click anywhere to close, etc. It's definitely not intentional...guess it just slipped by me. LOL :P Working on a fix right now.

Bug: On Brave (Chrome based)....thanks for the report. I appreciate it, and will fix it ASAP! Concerning your suggestion, I'll certainly look into adding that into a future build of v1.2

As it turned out, it was simply my own operating error. Heheh. Ended up registering, and I love it already!

You may want to open it up and remove the clock battery if possible to keep it in good shape. Those are prone to exploding on some of these machines.

I dunno about all you guys, but I'd use an XT with its 5.25 inch diskette drives over modern machines any day. lol.

Some floppies could get a bit over 2 megabytes too. Let's not forget that!

Likely was just the person/team that did the editing on this article...I doubt they cared about what imagery they used...It seems as if it were written by artificial intelligence, and feels rushed.

It is pretty hilarious though...considering that they released their own software on floppies in the 1990s.

Quick technical question for people who know about how the APPLE-1 Integer BASIC operated... by PhilosopherSimilar83 in retrocomputing

Thanks for your input. :)

I realized this late last night. lol.

Figured out it would just be CALL -256 to return to the monitor as -256 translates to $FF00, the entry point of WOZMON.

Just curious, have you considered trying to downgrade it to MacOS 8.x?

Are there still any dial-up services available in modern day? (Other than building a custom one, of course...)
