That sounds like an RCA model.

I bought this one new back in the day. I’m glad to have it working again. I just wish it had auto reverse.

And it’s sad that the TV audio feature has been rendered useless.

Belt surgery successful. My old Walkman can play tapes again!

The insides of an InageWriter II dot matrix printer with a PCB inside - that’s the ImageScribbler card.

Want a hardware-y way to get your ImageWriter II up on #GlobalTalk in time for #MARCHintosh? Last year I reverse engineered Apple’s LocalTalk option card and made the design available, naming it ImageScribbler: github.com/polpo/images...

Sadly, they also stole two They Might Be Giants CDs and a Deep a Forest CD.

I wonder if they’d card me if I ordered off the 55+ menu at Perkins.

Oh, look… more things I don’t need.

I don’t know. A declaration of Angry New Year seems apropos in this era.

Whew! Got my order in just in time.
