What is the RetroChallenge?
Its a look at old hardware by using it, it's a discovery of the kit you loved when you were younger, it's a play for the sake of it, its stopping computers ending up in landfill sites when they are still useful, its a bit of fun for those geeks out there that want to play with old computers.

| | | | Happy 55th birthday, Steve Jobs! - 24 Feb 2010 | 
Happy 55th birthday, Steve Jobs! Wednesday, February 24, 2010 - Today is Apple CEO and co-founder Steve Jobs' 55th birthday. Jobs was born on February 24, 1955. Steve Jobs was a college dropout when he teamed up with Steve Wozniak in 1976 to sell personal computers assembled in Jobs' garage. That was the beginning of Apple, which revolutionized the computing industry and made Jobs a multimillionaire before he was 30 years old. He was forced out of the company in 1985 and started the NeXT Corporation, but returned to his old company in 1996 when Apple bought NeXT. Jobs soon became Apple's chief executive officer and sparked a resurgence in the company with products like the colorful iMac computer, [Mac OS X, the iPod, and the iPhone]. Jobs was also the CEO of Pixar, the animation company responsible for movies like Toy Story and Monsters, Inc. Pixar was purchased by the Walt Disney Company in 2006 for $7.4 billion in stock; the deal made Jobs the largest individual shareholder of Disney stock. Some sources list Los Altos, California as Jobs's place of birth. However, in a 1995 oral history interview with The Smithsonian, Jobs said, "I was born in San Francisco, California, USA, planet Earth, February 24, 1955." Jobs was given up for adoption after birth and raised by his adoptive parents in Silicon Valley... His biological sister is novelist Mona Simpson, author of "Anywhere But Here."

If you’re sick of all these new Apple fanatics and you want to show them all that you’ve been a diehard fan since the early days, even sticking by the company through Newton and Pippin, then this thumb drive made out of an old Apple keyboard is for you. Ingredients: an old Apple keyboard, a thumb drive you’re willing to destroy, some workbench-y tools and whatnot, time. The basic process then involves gutting a regular thumb drive, carving out a notch for it to fit into inside an old Return key, and grabbing the Apple logo from another area of the keyboard. Sand, cut, glue, solder, slice, etc. and you’ll eventually have yourself a nice retro USB thumb drive. Please observe the detailed directions at Instructables. My directions were NOT very helpful and may result in massive bleeding.

| | | | RetroChallenge Winter Warm-up on for Jan 1/09 - 16 Dec 2008 |  It's that time again, retrogeeks... the RetroChallenge Winter Warm-up* is officially on for Jan 1/09. For those new to the RetroChallenge, it's a chance for retrocomputing enthusiasts to show off their skills (or lack thereof)... it's an excuse to forego the complexities of modern technology and relive the glory days of 8-bit processors and monochrome monitors... an opportunity to trade in the iPhone for a Newton... a chance to impress the ladies with your stunning command of FORTRAN... you get the idea. Unlike the Summer* RetroChallenge the WInter Warm-up is a less competitive event... think of it as a show-and-tell for retrogeeks. If it sounds like your cup of tea, be sure to check out the rules (such as they are) and announce your intention to enter. retrochallenge.net | | | | A bunch of old Apple II Interface cards - 16 Dec 2008 | |
