  1. It's day #3 of seeing how cheaply I can live for retirement income experimentation. Of course this is the day all the 'hot ebay deals' show up.

      The Affordable Care Act greatly changed the cost of health care. Depending on the state you live in, coverage level and income, you may pay as little as $10 per month for health care.

      Good luck with your retirement trial. Retro gaming is fairly inexpensive if you spend more time playing games and less time buying gaming hardware you don’t need. In between playing games, I suggest spending some time on https://www.early-retirement.org/

  3. Currently playing IS3 on the PSOne. I was a huge fan of the Jaguar games and this takes everything developers Eclipse Software learned on the two earlier titles and cranks it to 11. Like IS2, it's a bit on the hard side but still very enjoyable. IS3 was also on the Nuon.

     

    Any fans of this or the other IS games?

      Tempest X on the Playstation One is very similar to Tempest 2000 on the Jaguar.

      Looks good - you may be the only one developing software on this computer in 2019!

       

      The 8-Bit Guy posted a review of the Mindset computer on 7/27/19 that was recently purchased from the Computer Reset store in Dallas https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3a_qJFD80_c&feature=youtu.be

       

      I wonder if you are programming on this same machine?

  5. Thinking of turning my rPi 3 into a SIO2PC server for my 65 XE.  Maybe gut my tape drive for a case.

      I think the SIO2PC runs fine on the RPi ZeroW, which is a lot cheaper.
