Happy with the Osborne 1 I picked up last week. Needed the PSU filter caps and a few significantly out of spec capacitors replaced before it would fire up. A good clean, drive lube and a spot of Retrobrite.

Had a bit of a disaster with the Retrobrite so I've been experimenting with paint.
Do you think the function keys should be black? Not happy with the official badge so may have to print something a bit more in keeping.

whoever wished me luck, it worked. This was not even advertised as having its original box! foam inserts and all! I am over the moon, and it works great! just needs a retrobrite, but that’s routine at this point. let’s go! >ᴗ<

My friends,
Over the past couple of months, I have been perfecting a sunless "RetroBrite" procedure that's heavily based on @aergan.com's vapor method. I want to be confident in the process, with zero marbling or streaking.
This customer was so happy that his SNES is now all the same color!

Picked up a Compaq 386/20E set in overall very nice shape today, besides an obvious need for a full retrobrite. However, after about 10 mins of use the monitor let out a tremendous amount of magic smoke…. let sit for a bit and had a look, no obvious cap failure. Still works fine, too.. very strange

Retrobrite-ing the gameboy for my first time retrobrite-ing anything
First pass was done with sunlight in a ziploc bag for 4 hours.
Gotta do another pass, but it’s working well so far. Gotta get a UV lamp I feel to make this faster

All I can say about PicoIDE is this:
It's going to be the biggest thing for vintage computers.
Ever.
Take Platinum Filament, Retrobrite, BlueSCSI, PicoGUS and PicoMicroMac combined. Then multiply that by about 20.

Are you ready for #PicoIDE? It seems to be telling me it's ready. Coming soon: ATAPI optical disc emulation and IDE hard drive emulation. picoide.com

i couldn’t help myself.. i had to retrobrite this thing asap! BUT i will still make a video about my methods. they’re nothing new, just the salon creme + cling wrap method with a slight twist (complete unwrapping and reapplying every 30-45 mins for an afternoon to prevent splotching/streaking)

Genius.
Placing my Retrobrite tub next to my filament dryer means extra heat and better reaction.

I don’t know if it was intentional (probably not) but love how this USB charger resembles a late 1980’s computer in desperate need of Retrobrite.
