I forgot it was 50 years since the release of the 6502 last month.

I also did an image for the BC108 transistor, which was very popular in the '80s when I was building circuits as a teenager. (It's on my TeePublic page.)

Having not uploaded anything new to TeePublic for ages, earlier this year, I created a couple of designs relating to transistors. This one's for the OC71, one of the first transistors I used.

@rhayadercompute Action Biker and ACE on the C64 take me back to 1985. I remember writing down the location of all the items in Action Biker. And I used the calculator watch that came with ACE to pass the time in the railway station waiting room on my way home from college.

It's 1985. What game do you remember playing and spending your most time on ?

Steve Jobs, Andy Hertzfeld and Bill catching up at the Palo Alto Apple Store original iPhone launch on June 29, 2007.

Such sad news. RIP Bill Atkinson.

Today is a very sad day for the Apple community Bill Atkinson has died at the age of 74😢 He was Apple employee number 51 and the principal designer and developer of the Lisa GUI. He was also among the first 30 members of the original Apple Macintosh development team. RIP Bill

@CommodoreBlog I spent a lot of time playing Action Biker and Colony.
(I just realised those begin with ABC.)

Precious memories flooding back from a better time. What was your go-to Mastertronic game?

@CommodoreBlog My second childhood computer was a C64. But I’ll still retweet. 😁
(My first was a 16K ZX Spectrum & I wanted that SID chip!)

Today’s #RetroTrio offers you the #Commodore #CBM8032, #Atari #600XL and #Amstrad #PC1640. Which will you keep, gift to a friend and delete forever? #RetroComputing #ComputerHistory #RetroGaming #VideoGames

@SWRetroComp @billysastard1 @r3trogam3boy @Atari_VB_Pod @retrokatg @AmstradEterno Keep Amstrad PC1640. It’s nothing special to most people, but it’s the first PC clone my employer bought me in the ‘80s, after I’d borrowed an IBM XT for a while.
Gift the Commodore.
Bin the Atari.

@SWRetroComp @ColonelFalcon @gamesyouloved @Nintendork9 @Supmsx @billysastard1 @r3trogam3boy @RetroGamersClub @retrokatg I’ll go for the left hand column. The colour classic was not the best looking or performing, but it brings back memories for me.
And I wouldn’t mind trying a QL.
I’m unfamiliar with the NEO-GEO, but it could be interesting.
English
This week’s #RetroEnnead offers you the #MacColourClassic, #GameGear, #Superbrain, #NeoGeo AES, #HX10, #Videopac, #QL, #Wii and #C16. Pick a line of 3 and dump the rest! #RetroComputing #ComputerHistory #RetroGaming #VideoGames

@SWRetroComp @ColonelFalcon @billysastard1 @r3trogam3boy @spectrum48k @retrokatg @CPCGAMINGDEMOS @Atari_VB_Pod @EverythingC64 Bin the Atari 800XL. It's not bad, but it only an incremental improvement over the 800.
Bin the C64C. I'll stick with the original C64.
Gift ZX Spectrum and Dragon 32. (I'll secretly keep my ZX Spectrum.)
Keep CPC464 and Electron because I've never had them.
English
Missed yesterday and so for today’s DOUBLE #RetroTrio we have the #ZXSpectrum, #Electron, #C64C, #800XL, #CPC464 and #Dragon32. Which TWO do you keep, gift and delete from history? #RetroComputing #ComputerHistory #RetroGaming #VideoGames

At 3pm on 26 April 1985, the world's first commercial #RISC processor powered up... and changed the world.
Join us on Sat 26 April: #SophieWilson, #SteveFurber and other key people will celebrate that iconic moment.
Book ahead - this will be popular! ow.ly/r1RG50VzORe

@sir_top_and_hat Thanks! I’ll definitely check out the plus4 version - I didn’t know about that.
English
@starchipdesigns Fantastic choice 👌 I'd say 8/10 they made a plus4 version recently definitely worth your time checking it out on YouTube & a brilliantly fun game too 🙂👾🕹🎩
