The Z80 Membership Card Computer edit / delete
Z80 version of the CDP1802 Membership Card. This is not a million miles away from the Pocket80 machine I built -- except they use separate EPROM and RAM, whereas mine just had battery-backed-up RAM.

Home Z80-based console. The video system on this is very similar to the one I built in the 90s for my Z80 machine -- including the lack of sync with the processor. (But even IBM's CGA had that problem!)

Popular Electronics Magazine edit / delete
All SWTPC (of later home computer fame)'s Popular Electronics projects. Includes several generations of a neat transistor amplifier project, and other standard 70s audio fare. The guitar amp stuck out as one worth cribbing ideas from (e.g. the tone controls which I've never got right on my practice amp...).

Spectrally Challenged - distortion spectra of audio power chips edit / delete
"This very interesting article by Ben Duncan appeared in the October 1993 issue of Electronics World + Wireless World magazine in the UK. In it, the author tests ten popular power amplifier chips and explains, amongst other things, how the distortion spectra are important in terms of sound quality." The LM386 is -- as expected -- terrible.

The Qube RiscOS Server edit / delete
A large collection of mods for the Archimedes, and a canned classic RiscOS distribution (including !Hamsters). I particularly like the mod that involves installing an Atari ST floppy controller in an A3000 to get HD floppy support!
