I had a lot of fun entering the challenge, my first one, with a Medley Interlisp project that extended NoteCards to visit websites:

WOW! Retro-computing today on a 2008 Mac Pro 3,1. COMPLETELY USEABLE on Mojave thanks to dosdude1's Mojave Patcher for unsupported Macs. Fantastic! I can use this computer for years more now. (Now to donate for this great software. Thank you, dosdude1) Posting from the Mac Pro now.

Apple! Support your hardware for longer!!

I have released the schematics, gerbers, and example source code for the Rotary Encoder module for the #RC2014. I designed this for the 2024 #RetroChallenge .

Code Protection Showdown: 1980s Edition! Transform Your BASIC Code Into an Impenetrable Fortress (or a Maze of Utter Despair) #retrochallenge. Full details here: hacking.museum/index.php/2024/.

We’re gearing up for a wild weekend as Hacking.museum sets up shop at the UnlockYourBrain hacking conference! Expect a ton of retro-style hacking madness, complete with our animated retro ISP modem setup and a series of nostalgic CTFs featuring the ZX81, ATARI ST, and more. See you there! #retrocomputer #retrohacking

Final wrap-up for #RetroChallenge from me this year. Did the #ZX81 module for the #RC2014 live up to the #RC2024 expectations? Find out here rc2014.co.uk/3331/retro-challe

#retrochallenge is finished. But I didn't complete my goals. Boo!

But at least I've got the testing framework actually testing my camelforth bootrom project, that's already pointing to a couple of issues, now! Yay. One step closer to release!

Of course, almost as soon as I'd finalised my Pico MZ-80K 1.0.0 release I found a bug!

😩

Some (definitely not all) games written in machine code have difficulty in picking up keyboard presses.

I suspect this is because they're reading the keyboard scans directly, rather than behaving nicely and using the monitor subroutines provided for that purpose.

I think I should be able to fix this, but it may be quite tricky.

Finally: do you want to see the #RetroChallenge #PERQ 2T2 on the bench in person? Come to the Retro Computing Festival at Cambridge’s Centre for Computing History on the 9th and 10th — you’ll find me there wrestling with it live!

To debug the machine, you have to listen to digital signals moving in and out of suspect parts. A logic analyser (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logic_an) is a key tool. But my old one could only monitor 16 signals, so I did a #RetroChallenge side quest: get and set up this 136-channel beast!

A boxy Tektronix TLA714 logic analyser (basically a box with an LCD on the front) is in the foreground. Four thick cables full of probe wires snake out of the box and back into the PERQ in the background.A screen image from the logic analyser showing waveforms for various PERQ EIO board signals jumping up and down.Logic analyser probes are clipped to chips on the PERQ EIO board: specifically, the boot ROM and the Z80. These are just a few dozen probe wires and already it looks like a bit of a mess!

#PERQ 2 machines have this diagnostic counter that counts up during boot. If it stops counting before some OS-specific number in the hundreds, there was a problem. When #RetroChallenge 2024 began, the counter was saying 010. Basic tests pass, but disks don’t work. No boot.

An oblong black panel a bit bigger than a deck of cards. There is a big red power switch at right. At bottom left is a black button with the word “RESET” printed above it; at top left, beneath the word “DIAGNOSTIC”, is a three-digit 7-segment LED display that reads 010.

It’s just turned November here — that wraps up #RetroChallenge 2024! I dedicated my month to reviving an early 1980s #PERQ 2T2 graphical workstation. Let me show you how far I got… 🧵

A PERQ 2T2 system unit with its covers off. The machine is operating and a 3-digit LED readout at top right says 999. Circuit boards with ribbon cables exiting are visible; so is a Gotek floppy drive emulator. At right, the PERQ keyboard (taking layout cues from the VT100 keyboard) and behind it a LCD monitor showing black text on a mostly-blank white background.

last day and finally at the end! Any good FEA program will inevitably end up having a punched card editor. This version is definitely way too old even for any of the solvers I have, it's missing a substantial amount of features. It seems to have been intended for version ls950 or so. So I will definitely need to edit the card deck by hand in a text editor. Also seems to be a few bugs(?) like it won't let me change coordinate systems for cards despite the docs saying I can.

RetroChallenge is coming to a close! I learned:

1. USB is a blessing. Compatibility for devices for over 20 years.
2. Maybe the 32 bit era is truly over. Was hard to get modern web working on 32 bit apps.
3. Will keep using old computers even in limited ways.
