Amateurs. I still keep Apple ][ GS computers running (you want vblint
sync, that is all that is left; you want horizontal line scanning
sync: there is no other machine!). And Hypercard on the ][GS (full
colour!) was in many ways what hypercard should have been on the mac.
It died with the ][GS, but it was fun. I still run it in emulation on
OSX (and then back-port the software to the ][GSs).

Wow, Andre, that's the right attitude! Unfortunately about 9 of my
older
computers are stuffed
in the attic of my house in St Andrews, Scotland, and I have yet to
work
out how to get them to
Bulgaria (especially my 'first love', my BBC Master Compact).
I had great fun 2 years ago, on holiday in Scotland, running up a
whole
pile of simple programs
for my school using Runtime Revolution 1.1.1 on an all-in-one Mac
Performa PC 5260CD and then
burning all the stuff onto a CD via my external 4x SCSI burner;
lovely job!
I also managed to convert some Hypercard stuff of mine with Metacard
and
then use that as
a foundation for some new things.
Mind you, the built-to-order SCSI card I have in the back of my G4 Mac
only seems to work
with Mac OS 9, and then plays funny games with my ZIP drive.
If I could get all my old Macs to Bulgaria I would probably use them
instead of the Pentium IIIs
with Ubuntu as I believe their lives will be longer.
sincerely, Richmond Mathewson.
