Today I dedusted my MSX TurboR, my Amstrad CPC and my Apple Lisa II and brought them back to life. While the Lisa is running the world's first GUI ever available for the public, the two Z80/R800 machines are executing my SymbOS operating system with it's windows-like GUI and real multitasking. For your pleasure the MSX is playing MP3s (Apoptygma Berzerk, "Welcome to Earth") with Dennis/Yobis MP3 card, while using the Sunrise IDE mass storage interface + GFX9000 graphic card.

  • Any chance of SymbOS running on a ZX Spectrum? :)

  • Did you already try Doors for the Spectrum (see "Weblinks", "Doors" on the SymbOS website, seems, that I can't post urls here...)?

    Regarding a SymbOS-port for the ZX Spectrum: Because of the memory banking requirements it would only be possible on the +3 as far as I know.

  • Glad to see you back!

  • Glad to be back :)

see all

  • wow that is some old shit 

  • Oh my, your Amiga is used as a monitor stand, how embarrassing :p

    I'm really impressed with SymbOS, and I've been trying to get my hands on an Amstrad CPC for years but they're not as easy to come by in my area as other older 8bit computers.

  • Is it possible to program an X68000 or MSX Turbo R to do convincing sound/gfx demos like on Amiga, C64, Spectrum/Pentagon (beefed up Russian ZX Spectrum clone), Atari ST/Falcon030/TT, etc.?

  • Amazing , nice hobby room , i have 25 retro machines and no more space :( .

    You have a better machinary in your colection , that MSX 2 is a mazing, here in Argentina i can´t get no one of this kind of machines , im only have a Talent DPC-310 (Msx 2) in dead state , i sold em , i hate dead hardware :( .

    Congratulations.

    Greetings

    Fernando
