Last video of 2018! I purchased this Playstation one for cheap since it was listed as not working. The disc would not spin at all and the playstation was unable to read discs. In this video I do a bit of restoration and do a temporary repair to fix the problem of a broken lid close sensor. Merry Christmas and a happy new year!

This is not a repair video as it all worked perfectly. In this video I show you some unboxing, testing and cleaning of a Commodore Amiga 500 I recently bought with a big box of goodies with it, like a Commodore 1084 monitor.
Everything turned out to be working, but I still wanted to make a video out of it. Enjoy, and please subscribe and like :)

Jeg kjøpte nylig en perle av en gammel Commodore 128 datamaskin med diverse utstyr på finn.no. I denne videoen kan du se at jeg tester om den fungerer og at jeg fikser på et litt dårlig tastatur.

I took a new look at the WiC 64 module for the C64 to see if anything had changed.
I also made a modified WiC64 kernal rom for the C64 C.
The WiC64 is a module for the C64, VIC20 and C128 user port that makes it possible to connect the old 8-bit computers to the internet via WiFi.
I made a video about this last year, but now I wanted to see what was new with the solution.
Check out the old video: https://youtu.be/HL1O0eFA-IA
This is much more than just using BBS's. There are actual online services that can be used, and you can load games and demos directly from the internet.
Included is a kind of internet portal that has a lot of features and also has the possibility to use Google Maps and even Street View on the C64.

In this video I do some recapping and clean an old Commodore Amiga 500 computer. Then I install a Gotek floppy emulator with a floppy drive selector that makes the Amiga boot from floppy images on an USB drive as an external drive. That way I can keep the Amiga original with the old floppy drive still in the machine. This involves some soldering as the floppy selector is a kit of smd components.

In this video I check out the RAD Expansion unit for the C64/C128. It can do some magic tricks!
PCBWay https://www.pcbway.com/setinvite.aspx?inviteid=481573 - great quality PCBs from just $5!
The RAD is a fairly simple device for the cartridge port of a C64/C128. It works together with a Raspberry Pi and can bypass the computers CPU to do some really heavy lifting and cool stuff while still using the computers VIC2 and SID chip (and the rest of the machine).
This way you can run DOOM on the C64. The game runs on the Pi's ARM processor in 50 FPS, but you use the C64 for the keyboard, graphics and sound. It can play samples, and it also features up to 16Mb RAM expansion. How cool is that ?
In this video I also install a modern Saruman memory replacement for the golden C64.
