As you can see this is a control pad of the Ion iCade case. It is designed to fit an iPad and has a built in stand for holding it.

The iCade is designed to work as a Bluetooth keyboard of sorts with an iPad.

It uses a standard arcade control wiring and is very easy to modify it to work with any interface can convert the signal from Analog to USB, like the PCB of a Logitech Dual Action joypad.

A software developer John Brooks released what is clearly a work of pure love: the first update to an operating system for the Apple II computer family since 1993.

ProDOS 2.4, released on the 30th anniversary of the introduction of the Apple II GS, brings the enhanced operating system to even older Apple II systems, including the original Apple ][ and ][+.

Note: ProDOS 2.4 is now updated to ProDOS 2.4.1.

ProDOS 2.4 adds new features for all Apple II computers, including the 1977 Integer ROM Apple II. The last release, version 2.0.3, was released in 1993 by Apple computer, 23 years previously.

Photo Gallery update of my Retro Collection / Retro Trash.

Many things in the photos are not visible because are in hidden places or deliberately hidden.

I seem to have accumulated a lot of things in these long years and this is a good time to meditate what to do and what not to do, absolutely do not sell anything or donating, but also not continue to accumulate, in fact from a few months i’m moving just on repairs and modding and i must say that i feel much better.

A nice donation from a friend. Texas Instruments Extensa 460 a laptop of the 90s

2 x Texas Instruments TI-99/4 Power Supply Fixed

• Removed the RIFA Filter Capacitor, one exploded.

Texas Instruments TI-99/4 Fixed

Defect:

• Garbage screen on startup immediatly or after a couple of minutes.

Fix:

• This defect is very similar to the one of the Coleco Vision console.

The problem are the pins oxidized of the power switch, i have sprayed R-11 and the problem it’s disappeared completely.

I left turned on the computer for more than 2 hours and i have made a 50 x power cycle (ON/OFF) and the problem is no longer appeared.

Note:

I thought there had to be a VDP RAM problem with a diagnosis made remotely without having the TI-99/4 in the laboratory.

To avoid using the lame RF modulator i have used a standard Commodore 64 composite cable that works very well with a NTSC composite video output.
