Recapped this lovely PS/2 trackball/mouse for my L40 SX laptop. It’s an odd beast that is a bit awkward as a trackball - I don’t care for the button placement. And unusable when converted to mouse mode. It does work now so that’s nice.

I have osteoarthritis in my hands. A common condition for someone my age. It can be a challenge when I repair vintage computers. I can’t cure my condition AND I can make accommodations.

As more and more old SCSI hard drives start to fail, projects like BlueSCSI become more and more important. Both to save the contents of, and/or replace dying drives, and also to allow us to backup and take the load off working drives so we can preserve them for the future.

I’m surprised they didn’t call them “career advancement delays”.

Look how cute the cover of this Japanese Mac HyperCard dungeon-crawling RPG is! Released in 1993 and titled a 'Stack RPG'.

RIP Bill Atkinson. He created most of the early Mac's user interface idioms, and also MacPaint and Hypercard, who were amazing innovations at that time. His signature, along with that of original Macintosh team members, are engraved inside my old Mac SE's box.
