Durosity’s conquests and collection
Posted by: 3lectr1cPPC on 2023-02-04 16:25:47 Nice mate! Can't wait to see the finished result.
Posted by: joshc on 2023-02-04 16:51:00 including 2 of the Gravis GamePad Pro’s which work beautifully with CVGS PlayStation emulator! Thanks for reminding me these exist - I just bought one from eBay so should be able to have some PS emulator fun too. 🙂

Posted by: Durosity on 2023-02-05 08:13:06 So.. todays acquisition is one that I’ve been building the parts for for a while now.. it desperately needs a retrobrite but other than that it’s in pretty good condition. I’m not aware of anyone else who has one of these in the UK.. I’m excited I now have a LC 520 😁
Posted by: joshc on 2023-02-05 12:08:39 RARE! At least in the UK anyway... and all the ones I see elsewhere have been smashed up in shipping. It still amuses me how they evolved the Colour Classic design into ... that.
Posted by: Durosity on 2023-02-05 12:30:03 This one was smashed up in shipping, but I was able to get the replacement parts needed to repair it! And yeah.. it is uuuuuuggggllly. Part of the reason why I’ve always wanted one tbh.
Posted by: joshc on 2023-02-05 19:20:06 Now you just need to empty the rest of your bank account and get a 575 board to put in there. 😉
Posted by: Durosity on 2023-02-06 04:21:40 Then I could put this board in to one of the colour classics and turn it into a CCII! 😳
Posted by: joshc on 2023-02-06 04:25:31 Now that's some man maths right there. 😀
Posted by: Durosity on 2023-02-26 12:52:02 So uh.. this happened today
Posted by: cheesestraws on 2023-02-26 12:53:41 Good grief!
Posted by: Durosity on 2023-02-26 12:57:15 Which has resulted in.. well.. I admit.. I have a problem.
Posted by: 3lectr1cPPC on 2023-02-26 12:58:05 Here we go…
Posted by: Durosity on 2023-02-26 13:03:23 Here we go… 😂 I went down to collect a few machines from a WEEE recycling centre.. but came away with about 2x as many as was in the auction photos.
Posted by: 3lectr1cPPC on 2023-02-26 13:03:49 Ah, recycling center. Makes sense. Enjoy!
Posted by: cheesestraws on 2023-02-26 13:09:45 Good grief twice.
Posted by: joshc on 2023-02-26 19:15:49 I see beige. Lots of it. 😂 I went down to collect a few machines from a WEEE recycling centre.. but came away with about 2x as many as was in the auction photos. How does this work? Where did you find the auction? I've never seen any way of getting stuff from recycling centres here. P.S. your garage looks normal, I see loads of room for more Macs. 🙈
Posted by: CC_333 on 2023-02-26 20:25:09 Gee Whiz! @Durosity's setup looks better than my storage unit does at this point! I'm hoping that can change this year, but we'll see.... c

Posted by: Phipli on 2023-02-27 02:15:22 ^what he said. Is it a Northern thing? They used to have "recycling centres' attached to dumps a few years back in the west Midlands, but I haven't seen one since I moved to the east mids.
