How-to Geek Article: UNIX V4 is back: I booted into the 1973 OS and it made me weirdly happy.

Last year, researchers at the University of Utah found a copy of Unix lying around on a 9-track magnetic tape. It's special because that version of Unix was lost until it was recovered from that magnetic tape 52 years later.

... okay okay: another one to close a very, very busy but lucky day at #Amiga40

I'll be tooting a longer resumee tomorrow - but if there's one thing I can say for sure it is that #Amiga has never been more alive!

A desk at  an exhibition booth, featuring an Amiga 1200 ("keyboard-case") computer in a snow white case with a contrasting black keyboard and an ArcadeR joystick (a "Competition Pro" Joystick clone) in matching white color with black buttons. The Computer is running the "Block Cannon" video game, which is also available at said booth.
