New blog post - Lots of new things for the Minstrel 3. blog.tynemouthsoftware.co.uk/2024/04/lots-o… Various things that depend on each other, so here is the overview, more detailed posts on each one to follow.
New blog post - a look though one user's top 20 VIC 20 games. Let's see if there are any hidden gems in there. (note there are 23, and some of them aren't really top games) Reposting this without the link to see if it gets any more views. You should know the link by now anyway.

It seems like everyone has their own hot take on the #Z80 End Of Life. Well, here's mine and what it might mean for #RC2014 going forwards rc2014.co.uk/2757/zilog-z80… I shouldn't need to say this, but, I'm not looking for your suggestions, or sympathy, or what-about [x] ideas.
Hang on.. Did I tell everyone I've discounted the Penultimate+2 to £49.99? Yes/No (Delete as applicable) tfw8b.com/product/vic20-… #Commodore #VIC20 #KoolKidz
New blog post - The ZIF socket on my EPROM programmer has finally given up. So time to replace it and get that running again. blog.tynemouthsoftware.co.uk/2024/04/xgeco-… (and also realise it is time I got a new one)
@citifax @mrdoornbos The ZX81 Issue 3 / TS1000 board can generate 50 or 60 Hz video with a few minor changes. You can even get it to do multi-region if you want. blog.tynemouthsoftware.co.uk/2016/11/ts1000…
@8BitShowAndTell I am on the lookout for an unwanted 1541 in the UK with a case in that sort of condition. Doesn't matter about the colour or the holes as I need to modify it slightly and spray it black replace a damaged case on a 1551 drive. The 1551 cases seem to be very brittle now.
What better way to celebrate National PET Day than with a Mini PET? Available in kit and built forms, with keyboard or for to upgrade an original PET or CBM. All the links here: blog.tynemouthsoftware.co.uk/2023/09/minstr…
@tynemouthsw @majikeyric64 I loved your blog post! IIRC there are three R@ARE COLLECTOR cassettes of Alien Invasion I sent to some people a few years ago. I'm expecting those to reach a value of a few millions € each, today. 🤣😇🙃🙃
Glad to see that two of my VIC20 games are included in the Penultimate +2 cartridge! BTW, both are open source, github.com/DarwinNE/vic20… and github.com/DarwinNE/vic20… Enjoy! 😊

Brand new #retrogame for the #ZX81, "Minoss Knossoss" is released. Find the game and all about it at: zx81keyboardadventure.com/2024/04/zx81-g… Thanks to all those who tested it while in development and especially @tynemouthsw and @shieladixon for their contributions.
New blog post - What has changed in the updated version of the Penultimate+2 Cartridge? blog.tynemouthsoftware.co.uk/2024/04/vic20-… It's more than just a blue LED.

I like the ORIC-1 Programming Manual that comes with the computer. It's not just about learning BASIC. I enjoyed the section on machine code programming, complete with its list of 6502 instructions and opcodes for each addressing mode.
Working on my SuperCPU-based Super Computer. Each unit accelerates the system by 20x so I'm up to 20^16 MHz so far. At least, that's how I'm told the math works. Will need a beefier power supply to test. Thanks to @markseelye for the technical help...

The first episode of The Tomorrow People was broadcast on this day in 1973. Created by Roger Price, the seventies incarnation of the series ran for a total of 68 episodes.
I’ve bought some obscenely rare wheels for my crusty Austin Metro.
Ghostbusters is now available for the BBC Micro. Info at the Stardot forum. This is wild! Spent hours on this game on the C64.
Yeah, don’t do this. The level of disrespect and ignorance in using the life of a tortured and abused man as some sort of caricature to run a business. Shame on whoever thought of this.
Now who remembers typing in magazine game listings then? ... New video out (link below), where I not only have a go at typing in/running some games on a BBC Micro, but convert them into Python as well ... hopefully seeing this will inspire others to have a go themselves :)
@tynemouthsw @8BitShowAndTell I still get a kick out of the SX-64 TV ad where the girl dives into the pool. Apparently, the casting director forgot to ask that lady if she actually knows how to dive into a pool.
On this day in 1985, Dennis Taylor defeated Steve Davis to win the Snooker World Championship. 18.5 million viewers burned the midnight oil to watch the final frame.
COBOL 64 by Abacus. Designed for Students and Programmers. You can tell this is serious stuff because she took off her glasses to show him what key to press. A few years back I made a video about trying to #10print with COBOL 64: youtu.be/jukYdilQjOo

Bez from @Happy_Mondays telling me he cooks Ghormet Sabzi...Iran's most iconic dish, was something I didn't know I needed to here. What a word. Now I just need some of this soul food
