Bits&Terminal Jeff<p>Okay, if I can't sell my CGA monitor at a reasonable price I might try to make this adapter (was trying to sell my monitor/video-7 card/JCM-1 RGB adapter at <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/VCFEast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VCFEast</span></a> consignment, but only the adapter sold).

He had a Polaroid 100 land camera loaded with pack film. He shot this picture of me at my <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/PenPlotter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PenPlotter</span></a> exhibit.

JeffG<p>Had a BLAST at <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/vcfeast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vcfeast</span></a> today, the expanded show, the bigger consignment space, crazy cool exhibits and not to mention the other <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/infoage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>infoage</span></a> museum spaces are just getting better and better! Two of three nephews went and didnt even whine to go home (they actually loved it).</p>
