✅ Dragons with lids off ✅ Dragons with Wi-Fi ✅ Dragons running multi user Unix I must be getting ready for this year's Dragon Meetup in just one month's time! 😲 October 12th/13th, Cambridge Museum of Technology museumoftechnology.com/calendar/2024/… - see you all there! #dragon32

It's Tandata time! That's my Td 1616 and the whizzy wireless Td 1404 up and running for #BlockParty this weekend. Okay, I know it's not Teletext, but it's close and they let me come anyway! computinghistory.org.uk/det/72842/bloc…

Ok the order has gone off for manufacture so I'll stop bleating on about it for a while. If this works, it'll be a way to upgrade an original Spectrum to have better graphics than the Next. How's that for a goal?

Can't have too much green! Or can you? Come and see my table at the Retro Computer Festival and find out (and bring sunglasses) computinghistory.org.uk/det/72253/Retr…

I think I'm ready for the Festival of Retro Computing! See you all at the Computing History tomorrow 😄

Well, that was fun!

With much sadness, I'm afraid to say I'm locking this account and leaving this site. It's been huge fun - who would have believed I could do a daily post on Dragons for an entire year? - but I've had enough of Mr Musk, his toxic posts and his politics. See you on BlueSky!

We are VERY excited to announce our first major retro event - RetroFest 2025, to be held at STEAM, the GWR museum in Swindon on 31st May / 1st June. Over 40 exhibitors will be bringing a vast range of computers from the 70s, 80s and 90s. More info - retrofest.uk

It's time for another video! Get updates on the exhibitors, find out how many capacitors there were in that jar and see what happens when Pete goes out to meet the public ... youtube.com/watch?v=8l4OBB…

It's only FOUR WEEKS to go until RetroFest. Our exhibitors are slaving away to get their machines ready - and what better way to test them than displaying our logo! Tickets are selling fast, so we recommend buy one in advance if you can - retrofest.uk/tickets.php

Isambard Kingdom Brunel would like to remind you that it's just TWO WEEKS until RetroFest! retrofest.uk

It's just one week to go! It's getting full, though. We have more tickets available for Sunday, and it’ll be almost exactly* the same exhibitors. If you’re just coming one day, please consider coming Sunday, to ensure everyone gets to come to our event! retrofest.uk/tickets.php
