Yet another Macintosh Plus has dropped into my clutches. This one has a couple of external SCSI hard drives to boot - or not boot as the case may be. I'm going to use a BlueSCSI in initiator mode to pull any files off these drives before they die.
If you are so inclined, I am often found working on my mostly text adventure game. At times I work on other things to maintain my sanity - like this linter for HyperTalk. You can find more information on Adventure! The Quack of Dawn at http://quackofdawn.com. Scheduled for release at #VCFMW in 2025.
Thank you to my patrons!
