@NanoRaptor definitely better than the #NeXTcube with ith's unreliable #MOdisk drives!

RE: https://norden.social/@harzretro/115735678700268543

Irgendwo in meinem Chaos steht noch ein alter #NeXTcube … meine Erb/inn/en werden damit nichts anzufangen wissen.

Falls es irgendwo ein #Computermuseum gibt, welches nicht in privater Hand ist und daher nicht in Gefahr, mit seinen Besitzern auszusterben, würde ich den gerne spenden. WENN ICH IHN DENN FINDE 😬

"Welcome to Previous Admin"

#Previous #Emulator #NeXTcube #RetroComputing #VintageComputing

Well, I'm still in the process of making a Browser based admin interface for the #Previous #emulator to manage its configuration files. It originally was developed for #NeXTcube mini project, but it can be used for any #Linux based installation of Previous.

First try of a "Tim Berners-Lee" sticker on my #NeXTcube mini turned out not that bad. 😃

Fedi let's take a trip down memory lane.

Q: What was your first computing device?
A: Commodore 64 II (C64C)

Q: First Programming Language?
A: BASIC

Q: First Software written for others to use?
A: A Warehouse management software written in Turbo Assembler for GEOS on the C64

Q: First released when?
A: 1990

Q: Last update for that Software
A: 2005 a year later the company who used it went out of business because the owners retired.

Q: Commercial or Free
A: Commercial

Q: First UNIX like OS you used:
A: NeXTSTEP, a local company went out of business and I invested the money I made from my software into a barely used NeXTcube because I've seen one at a trade show and fell in love.

Q: What was your first PC and when?
A: AMD Am386 SX25 in 1990 for the computer science class in school to code in Turbo Pascal.
I payed half and my parents payed the other half.

Since some people have already expressed an interest in buying a #NeXTcube mini, I have to collect all these interested potential buyers so as not to lose track of them. Therefore, I have set up a form on my website where all those interested can sign up.

Please spread the word. Thank you. 🙏🏻

@tuparev And today I wanted to publish my first set consisting of NeXTcube, NeXT MegaPixel Display, and NeXT SoundBox, all in 1:2 scale. Unfortunately, I'm still stuck in test printing for parts of the display. These ribs are a real challenge! 😟

I'm considering trying out a #RadxaX4 for my #NeXTcube mini for a native #OPENSTEP 4.2 installation. Since it's #x86 #Intel hardware (N100), that should be possible, right? 🤔

NO... I was just about to test my circuit boards for the #NeXTcube mini, which I received a few weeks ago. And what should I say? All connections go to a GPIO header, which is located on the underside of the board. And I forgot to flip it around in PCB layout. Now all the connections are on the wrong pins. 🙈

NeXT Computer was officially announced by Steve Jobs 40 years ago on September 12th, 1985. Here's a nice overview of NeXT's history and impact:

Just soldered the 40 pin connector on my little PCB. I don't think the solder joints look too bad, do you?

Foto del ordenador NeXTcube formado por una pantalla de tubo de rayos catódicos, teclado, ratón y el ordenador que era una caja grande, todos de color negro. Varios de los objetos mencionados tiene marcado el texto en francés “Propiedad CERN”.

Está dentro de una vitrina para que no se toque.

First draft of a small project page for the #NeXT #SoundBox mini. I will successively create similar project pages for the other models (#NeXTcube, #MegaPixel Display).

In front of it a landing page listing this and upcoming project pages.
