Retrochallenge is great because you've got an audience and an excuse (if you have a spouse) to litter the house with retro-gear with the promise that it will only be a month.

Of course being the organiser I'm slightly bias!

Regardless of whether you enter feel free to follow @retrochallenge or #retrochallenge for updates during July.

I was burning EPROMS for the Tandy 102 last night for example :D

BTW - the Tandy 200 as it arrived has a couple of non-functional keys. They keys themselves seem ok, I'm thinking a row/column connection issue. I'll have to look at the technical manual to see if the keys in question are connected directly in the matrix.

Regards, Mark.

Not sure if any of you are interested in this, or if you're already
going to do it, but:

http://retrochallenge.org/

Next month; join in by doing a retro challenge of some sort!  (This
seemed like the right group to steer towards this challenge.)

 From that page:

--------8<----------------8<----------------8<----------------8<--------
In a nutshell, the RetroChallenge is a loosely disorganised gathering
of RetroComputing enthusiasts who collectively do stuff with old
computers for a month.

The event is very much open to interpretation... individuals set there
own challenges, which can range from programming to multimedia work;
hardware restoration to exploring legacy networking... or just plain
dicking around. It really doesn't matter what you do, just so long as
you do it.

While the RetroChallenge has its competitive side, it's not really a
contest... it's more like global thermonuclear war - everyone can play,
but nobody really wins.
