More Esselte 100 fun at @df_update ! I have done a tool for creating wav files from text files and another for generating DATA lines from binary. This photo is MicroBasic, or at least part of it. I can only load about 500 lines with DATA statements.

This evening there is no lecture as we are busy packing all day. On the todo list for today: Packing DEC modules neatly into boxes and planning where things should go in our new rooms. Stay tuned for more progress pics! #retrocomputing

Before Update can move we have to pack up our huge collection of historic computers and related items. Here are some pictures of our progress. Guess how many boxes of tapes we packed! #retrocomputing

Update is moving! At the autumn meeting we decided to sign a rental contract for 150m² of rooms at Svartbäcksgatan 63–65. Thanks to all of our members, sponsors and supporters who made this possible! Then we made waffles, as is tradition, probably for the last time at Pollax.
