Re: RANKING VINTAGE SWITCHES thread

This is a poll based on the switches someone has owned or tried , not really a ranking. To get that ranking each vote has to be cast by someone who has tried most if not all the switches here.

Re: Quarantine photo thread

this is a nice idea, just pair with some good background music and you can give those lo-fi channels a run for their money

Re: NEC PC-8801 mkIIsr with NON Blues

that is one of my favorite boards, I have the Type C or D .. I forget (the one with the different connector)

I think for that one its about handwiring. I think someone here had found a way to convert it ... somewhere in this forum. If I find the link I will drop it here

edit: no it is not, it is that strange larger sized connector thing
if it were the other version (that looks like a PS2 but is not, there is a guy here in Tokyo who makes and sells the converter for it
