Welcome to the second episode of Adventures in Archiving! In this instalment, I dive deep into the world of vintage computing, tackling the challenges of a mini cassette, exploring the slowest game ever, and fixing a 42-year-old docking station. Join me on this nostalgic journey as I unbox the Sharp PC-1251, a pocket computer with features like a micro cassette drive and built-in printer.

While exploring this retro gem, I share some insights into my theory of bidding strategies on the Dutch version of eBay and discuss the affordability of vintage computing back in the day. Along the way, I encounter battery corrosion, sticker residue, and the quirks of old-school technology.
Despite the hurdles, I embark on the task of digitizing old cassette tapes, discovering programs.

Join me as I experiment with digitization techniques, delve into the world of vintage computing, and share my findings with fellow enthusiasts. Stay tuned for more adventures!

Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video!
