awesome: Beastie/Leon McNeill just open sourced their Ultima III colour Macintosh port, all written in Think C!
This is the "Lairware" version that was sold at lairware.com, and received many updates over the years - eventually gaining OS X/Intel 32-bit support. The source appears to be an Xcode project with a mix of think C and cocoa.
great job, Leon!
Monitor upgrade time!
This screen is an absolute embarrassment sitting next to the mighty Quadra 700. I need to replace it with something that at least doesn’t make me cringe every time I look at it.
The catch? It must be an LCD—I just don’t have the space (or back strength) for a proper CRT. Any suggestions from the display connoisseurs out there?

has anyone had success using a mitsubishi ad-a205 macintosh -> VGA adapter with their classic mac?
I did not try it out but there is Whisky which looks like a frontend for Game Porting Toolkit from Apple.

Since my plan is now to get a Mac Studio with an M4 Max. What is the state of gaming on macOS?
Is it still bleak since they fucked up with Valve, or is there something usable to get modern Steam and GOG games to work?

betsyandsamantha now has a home on #youtube. All completed longplay content on #twitch has been moved to there, and as we complete games, they'll be downloaded and added.
Games are organised by playlist for ease.

I may consider adding to Peertube in the future.
There's content here from #infocom #atarist, #zxspectrum, #macintosh classic and modern #adventuregames.
I'm also working on a write-up detailing my video and audio capture setup.
I guess the eject gear of the floppy drive needs to be changed… #macplus #apple #macintosh #retrocomputing

So, regardless of the device, only one tool needs to be learned and maintained across all your devices.
I'll have to look into this.
