Re: The Return of Commodore?

Hi guys, long time since I was on here... just today took delivery of my Commodore 64 Ultimate - this seems to be the thread for it. Having fun reliving the machine, even down to connecting it to my actual telly (eventually got a Commodore monitor back in the day and had assumed the Ultimate would ...

Re: Hitting refresh, over and over - NSFW!

Someone posted this on Twitter from an old copy of Look-In. I'd like to think David Carr is on this forum somewhere.

Re: Can anyone help identify this 80s computer show?

Nice one, thanks! Yes it would more likely have been 83 than later. Latest 84 I would imagine, It was most likely a Commodore show so that was likely it.

Can anyone help identify this 80s computer show?

This may be impossible but I recently unearthed a small piece of paper on which is printed an early digital photo taken of me at a London computer show sometime in the early 80s:

Re: Old work laptop - worth keeping or worth risking its ret

It's a work laptop, so why have you got personal information on it anyway?

I've often used my work laptop for some personal things. Otherwise I'd be carrying around two laptops all the time. I can't be the only person who's ever done this.

What's so sensitive that you can't simply remove it ...

Old work laptop - worth keeping or worth risking its return?

A group of us at work have laptops (a Toshiba Portege Z30C188 to be precise) with Windows 10 and 8gb ram. Mine certainly has been great, though the battery life is obviously quite reduced now after a few years of use. It's not touch-screen, just a regular laptop.

Work are now giving us new laptops ...

Printer network oddity

Hello,

Sorry to post an IT question on here but I figured if anyone would know, you guys would... my Canon "Print" iPhone app used to print fine to my MG3050, but the other day nothing would get it to work. I ended up emailing myself the file and printing it from my (Windows 10) laptop on the wired ...

Programming books for a 14yo learning Python?

Hey guys, long time no speak :) My 14yo son is learning Python as part of his GCSEs and seems to be getting into it. I used to program Commodore BASIC many years ago but apart from occasional PHP tinkering haven't done any actual programming since I was his age. I thought I'd get him a programming ...
