   The keyboard on the AT&T 6300 looks different to that for the Olivetti M24, just comparing the pictures on the wikipedia page. I had an M24, with the original design of Logitech mouse that plugged into the keyboard.

   Personal experience. Was developing OSI applications in 1989, you could order an X.25 circuit from your PTT and run OSI over that using the ISODE [1] toolkit. The earliest ISP in my country didn't start until 1992. [1] https:/&#x

    My desktop has that stipple without using the '-retro' option, I guess it may be getting set by the window manager.

    I don't think any of the Linux GPU drivers are written to work with UEFI/ACPI.

    The case may be generic but the descriptions of the boards read to me that they are a custom (but open) design.

    I had not done an eBay search for "sold" items until now, some people seem to be paying high prices for Atari Falcon systems. I have a SPARC Station 2, Ultra 1, Ultra 2 and a Macintosh Quadra 950 that all work and would maybe have

    I think that HTML was a product of the exact time it was invented, it matched the point that some computers became fast enough to parse a text source format on the fly. I wrote an online hypertext system in 1985, but the storage format was

    I wonder if anyone is buying them at those prices though. I collected a few machines when they were either being given away at work or nearly given away on eBay.

    You could do cooperative multitasking on the ST by compiling apps as GEM desk accessories, I modified MicroGNU Emacs so that I could have it running alongside other things.

    I got a 1040STFM and SH204 through their developer offer, had been writing GEM applications on a PC so it was an obvious choice over an Amiga. Got a Mega 4 soon after they were launched, followed by a 1040STe at home that I upgraded to 4MB

    I would like to see scientific results presented in a standardized form, I suggest using ISO 10303 (STEP), this could make it easier to see exactly what is needed to reproduce those results.

    Maybe just the availability and maturity of that particular SoC, the PineTab-V tablet uses the same one. An obvious ARM SoC to use in a laptop is the RK3588.
