I do things with technology and stuff. Yes, that is very descriptive.

You either love to hate CQM, or hate to love it.
Regardless, this is really awesome and can help us understand and actually express the differences between CQM and a real OPL3.
The OPL Archive will be returning to VCF Midwest this year!
I know it's a bit repetitive, but the Archive is my unique contribution back to the community - more than just some computers everyone's seen before on a table.
Maybe I can find some ways to freshen the exhibit up this year?
I like the splash screen. Professional yet kinda quaint and amateurish at the same time.
And yes I know I'll have to deal with this stupid thing
FMV games are an acquired taste (and generally not a taste I have acquired myself), but this marathon of a video really helped me respect what they were trying to do. Incredible deep dive into Digital Pictures.
I did have to pull these ISA boards from the machine (they were in it when I got it) - two Equinox Megaport 12CS twelve port serial cards. Apparently they are EISA compatible somehow? But !EQX1011.CFG is lost to the ages. Does anyone have it? (and some drivers?? Equinox's FTP was never backed up)
Getting myself into trouble. I have a DECpc 466d2 MT. It's okay, but slowish for a 486DX2/66 and only has ISA slots. But now I have ended up with the motherboard from the 466d2... MTE! With EISA and VLB! I'm sure this swap will go just fine...
Very easy swap, and it passed the smoke test! It's very obvious the case was designed for both boards.
Now to deal with the stupid RTC chip.
Wired up a new battery for the Benchmarq RTC chip over lunch. Now for EISA config!
