Ruby LuftyloonI won an auction for an old NCR terminal recently. Got it for $2, since they clearly didn't realize what this is. (They had it listed as a CRT monitor.) If I were to guess, it's very likely 80s vintage. Having a very difficult time finding any info on this unit, though. The model number on the back doesn't provide much information. I need to track down a keyboard for it at some point.Any pointers or advice?<a href="https://blimps.xyz/tags/RetroComputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RetroComputing</a> <a href="https://blimps.xyz/tags/vintagecomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#vintagecomputing</a>

Boris Kretzinger"If you wanted to create a floppy disk from scratch, you'd first have to create the universe." Well, Carl Sagan said that about apple pie, but it basically holds true no matter what you want to create from scratch. Turns out trying to create new floppy disks is also not a small endeavor. This is the second person seriously trying afaik so far, and he's coming pretty close already. I especially like the chapter called "chasing microns".

Wolfgang StiefDear Fediverse! Being German, I'm quite familiar with German computer magazines. But not with the UK and US world. What were the “professional level” computer magazines in ca. 1980-2010 which wrote about enterprise IT, Unix, supercomputers, hardware? I'm NOT (yet) interested in software engineering or programming languages and also not very much in Linux.I already know BYTE magazine, Unix Review and several 8bit related magazines.
