Our meeting last weekend included a local rescue of a former Data General employee that had a large variety of electronics, which explains why you'll see a drill press. We had to triple the size of our free table!

AHCS meetings always feel like a mix of a rescue mission, a science fair, and a retro arcade and this month delivered on all fronts.

We rehomed a bunch of rescued systems, including a one‑of‑a‑kind Reynolds & Reynolds TC1000 that sparked plenty of “wait… what IS that?” reactions.

Other highlights include:
- a FujiNet cross play demo of Battleship with an Atari 130XE, a Tandy CoCo 2, an Apple IIc, a Windows 98 laptop, and an iPad.
- an oscilloscope turned into a multi‑OS retro computer.
- a micro PC running Windows 95 on Linux for retro FPS LAN fun.
- a new member displayed their retro setup with GTA.
- a DOS‑compatible PC built from a microcontroller.

The top moment though might have been when an Osborne blew a RIFA. What better way to celebrate a fantastic meeting!

This past week, Apple celebrated 50 years. In celebration, we assisted the Georgia Tech Library by restoring their Apple IIe, loaning them an Apple-1 replica, and providing a working Apple II Plus as an exhibit for students to explore and experience for all of April. Apple II forever!
