It is a "customized" version of Aladin on floppy disk. The only version I could find was in German, so I translated it in English and tweaked it to make it boot an English version of Macos 6. Still a work in progress...
Not sure if that counts for #MARCHintosh, but I'm running System 6 on my Atari ST, and I'm loving it !
Aw man 😞 Rest in peace Mr Cheifet, host of Computer Chronicles: obits.goldsteinsfuneral.com/stewart-chei...
What a legend. His work in both presenting and preserving the early days of computer history has been (and will continue to be) deeply appreciated! My condolences to his family and friends.

Bill Atkinson (black and white portrait from about 1985)
Old Macintosh computer (probably Mac 128, Mac 512 or Mac Plus) with MacPaint
Part of the source code for MacPaint in the Pascal programming language
Bill Atkinson, a key architect of Mac OS and the associated revolution in human-software interfacing, developed QuickDraw (the original Mac graphics technology), #MacPaint and #HyperCard.
The source of MacPaint (in #Pascal and assembly language) is available.

May, the 4th be with you !
Repost with something that you own that most people don’t.

Third video online ! This is the last part of a series on the Amstrad CPC 464. In this video, I fix a Quickshot II joystick and restore an AMX Mouse. #retrocomputing #amstrad #quickshot #amxmouse

This is worth watching.
What is happening is serious and it has real consequences for so many people.

Second video online ! This time, fixing a DDI-1 drive and playing with a DDI-5 (by Zaxon) #retrocomputing #amstrad
Still with the AI voice this time (though there is a glimpse of my actual voice somewhere in the video 😅)

I bet a new video from me wasn't on your bingo card this weekend?
Big thanks to @theretrochannel.bsky.social for joining me as I do my first video in a loooong time (kinda rusty)

Thank you so much !! 🙏
My very first YouTube video is online !
In this first video of a 3-parts series dedicated to Amstrad CPC 464 repairs and upgrades, I share a bit of history of the Amstrad CPC 464 and then fix the case and the keyboard of a CPC bought online. #amstrad #retrocomputer

A merry retro-christmas to all of you !
A few days before Christmas, an early gift has arrived. My very first Thomson MO5 ! #retrocomputing #MO5
Yes ! Congrats !!
This is what ChatGPT produced for me. Funny how slightly different it is (thought it is the same "style")
