We are currently shipping preorders for the BlueSCSI Ultra and Ultra Wide. Our website will soon change to "IN STOCK" rather than preorder for the Ultra range (except the SCA version). Exciting, since these are the first BlueSCSI Ultra's to go into the wild 👌

I am passing along praise for the great work of @eric.scsi.blue and his team that continue to make the @bluescsi.com a wonder.

I’ve used almost every iteration, and the innovation, documentation, support, and overall attention to detail are superb.

My vintage Macs love their BlueSCSIs!

The two Macs I will be showing at the Vintage Computer Festival SoCal next week. Both feature the Motorola 68030 processor. Both also feature internal BlueSCSI hard drive emulators. #macintosh #apple #retrocomputing #VCFSoCal #bluescsi

Less than 24 hours after launching on Crowd Supply, PicoIDE has doubled its goal. I’m overwhelmed (in a good way) by the response! Thank you so much to everyone that has backed the project so far. www.crowdsupply.com/polpotronics/picoide

@polpo.org joins us this week to talk optical media fragility, "cursed IDE controllers," & more, as ATAPI CD-ROM / IDE fixed hard drive replacement PicoIDE is ready for production.

The campaign launches today, see picoide.com for details, and watch this Saturday on This Week in Retro episode 253!

I designed the case for this thing and I've been playing with a development unit and it's going to take the whole vintage PC space by storm. Best thing since the gotek in my book. So much more flexible than using compact flash cards. Plus using it as a CD-ROM drive opens up so many possibilities!

pretty wild statement re: Republican Chris Madel drop from race for MN governor:

"Saying he cannot support the national GOP's 'stated retribution on citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so."

I'm sitting here crying.

Watching the footage and reading the accounts of what happened to Alex Pretti has broken me...

Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

I am watching what is happening in Minneapolis on Ali Velshi and one of the ICE officers (off camera) literally says, “It’s like Call of Duty. Pretty cool huh?” as they shoot whatever it is they are shooting. Agents walking around, guns unholstered for no reason. This is insanity

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.

The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

Stayed up a little later than I wanted to…and got it done.

The Cube is now done done, at least as far as #VCFSoCal is concerned. I’ve got some work to do on it before West but we’ll cross that bridge later.
