Greetings from Canberra - Cefiar - 20-09-2023

Hi All,

ChickenMan mentioned I should come here, since I'm now the owner of an Applix1616 that I'm about to restore.

For reference: https://forum.acms.org.au/t/retrochallenge-2023-10-applix1616-restoration-documentation/503

I currently live in Canberra (been about 18 months), but I used to live in Melbourne. I ran a multi-line BBS between 1988 and 1996 called Cafe Chrome.

I definitely see a few names here that ring bells from those days.

Anyway, that's about it.

Have fun!

Welcome Cefiar to the forum Smile

Nice to see another Applix 1616 survive and that you can get it up and running like new. I like yours in its original case, unfortunately mine is missing its case. To get access to our Repository which I'm sure your after, apply here https://www.microbeetechnology.com.au/MTFR_Access/MTFR_Access_NonEUA.htm

I actually applied while I was waiting for approval on the forum, so hopefully that should have also gone through. Haven't seen an email yet, but it's not been very long.  Smile

Ewan does that approval and it not automatic. I'm visiting him tomorrow so will remind him Smile
