Shift838 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 So I was cleaning out my man cave and rearranging things today and come across a box. Went through it and BAM. I found stuff I forgot I had. Namely i found me Original Super Space I and II cartridges Original never opened Super Extended Basic with manual Original Beyond Parsec cartridge Original Munchman II cartridge Original Miner 2049er cartridge Myarc DS/DD FDC with 80 track upgrade Original SAMS 1mb memory card from SW 99er's user group. My Promethius 300/1200 bps modem I used on my BBS back in 1986/87... All tested and functional... WooHoo! It's pretty bad when you forget about something you had put away years ago but it's great when you find it again and items in there are rare! Now if I could just find my original SOFTWORX BBS disk i ran back in the 80's! Just thought would share my happiness.. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omega-TI Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Myarc DS/DD FDC with 80 track upgrade Wow, it must be nice to have so much TI stuff that you can forget having one of those. I've given up all hope of ever getting one. After two years of waiting I told myself, "F it". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shift838 Posted August 21, 2016 Author Share Posted August 21, 2016 Wow, it must be nice to have so much TI stuff that you can forget having one of those. I've given up all hope of ever getting one. After two years of waiting I told myself, "F it". It's all about patience. I always like to have double of all my PEB cards if at all possible and highly used cards (like the XB 2.7). I'm only missing to double of my PCODE, PGRAM+ (provided I can even find these in my stash somewhere!) and my CC TripleTech and WHT SCSI card. With the HDX mod out, that mod along can replace a hard disk controller. That's another one I need to have a double of. I have a few other cards that I don't have doubles of and don't expect to ever have a 2nd one of like the Foundation 128k and 512k cards I have.

+Ksarul Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Nice find! I know that kind of pleasant surprises pretty well, as I get similarly interesting surprises every time I go into one of the boxes I have in deep storage (although the things I find are generally much less interesting than this haul).

PeBo Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 I found my original french TI-Basic Reference Card a few months ago...a somewhat lesser find than yours, but it is all that remains of my original era TI hobby (and was kept by accident - found between unrelated documents), so it was still a cool discovery at the time. Nowadays, if I go looking for stashed treasures, I open the closet door, and stand there for a few minutes trying to figure out why the heck I opened the closet door, then just say "screw-it" and close it again. I can remember 40 years ago like it was yesterday, but don't ask me what I was doing 10 minutes ago! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
