So about 15 people showed up to the repair workshop. Most were in the CDL
building and the rest were in 9032-A, the museum and the warehouse.
Ian was able to repair the Xerox in the museum by swapping out a board from
another Xerox. He will try to repair the original board later. In addition
Ian fixed a number of other items that hopefully he will mention here.
Jeff Salzman tested all sorts of Commodore hardware which was fun watching
especially him using the Magic Voice hardware and then realizing that Gor
and Wizard of War both had digitized voices when the cartridges were
plugged into the Magic Voice. Sounded just like the arcade versions.
Jason Perkins tested and fixed the Diablo printer as well as a Apple
Profile.
Dmitry had success at the very end of the workshop, but I don't remember
what he was working on.
Corey and I started prototyping a new backdrop for the artifact carts that
I hope everyone will like.
Can everyone else chime in on what they were working on?
Next event is the swap meet & repair workshop on April 24.
