The Fujitsu FM-11 AD2 is quite a beast of a machine, weighing in at 19kg/47lbs when in its box (without manuals!). This is from its initial test two years ago. The machine powered up and booted off a BASIC floppy, but I didn't want to use the undoubtedly rare system disks very much. 続き⇒ |

I've been picking up a few computers recently, mostly MSX, that I don't really intend to keep but I think are unique enough that I want to give them a test run and photograph them for the blog. The NEC PC-8001mkII is one such machine. I have the PC-8001 and PC-8001mkIISR, which is already pretty redundant, but as the aesthetics and materials are strikingly different I allow them to co-exist so far. The PC-8001mkII sits between them and lacks the tank-like build of the PC-8001, and does everything the PC-8001mkIISR does except the FM sound. Overall, it's hard to give it a permanent home with my lack of space. But it is a cool computer, and had I not gotten a reasonable deal on the SR variant, I probably would have ended up with this, as it's a lot cheaper! 続き⇒ |

I've been really fascinated with the MZ-1500 recently. Among the reasons is the QuickDisk drive. The QuickDisk medium was not very widely used in the home computer market, but I think it stakes an interesting and meaningful ground between tape and floppy disk. Like a tape, the medium is sequential in reading and writing, but the speed is more comparable to a floppy disk. The QuickDisk drive makes an ear-pleasing symphony of read/write sounds as it does its job. If you have a Famicom Disk System, you've surely already heard these sounds, as the FDS main unit is just a slightly modified QuickDisk drive, and their disks just slightly modified QuickDisks. 続き⇒ |

I finally got around to firing up my X1’s included “Graphics Tool”, part of the included “Z’s Staff-Z” software bundle that came with my system. I am no artist by any stretch and I figured loading up and attempting to use an 8-bit paint program would be an excruciating exercise. But I wanted to explore more about my Sharp X1 Turbo Z. There were definitely moments of frustration, but it was also a great experience. 続き⇒ |
