Very cool and great job! Did you use some preexisting
schematics for that or did you whip that up yourself? Either way very cool and thanks for the video
What are you planning on doing with it from here?

I've seen stranger instruction sets.
How about an OISC? Or something like the MAXQ2000 from
Maxim.
Whatever you choose, my hat's off to you for carrying it through.

I don't have one, I lusted after one when I was a kid. There is one however (with huge provenance) just
up the road from me in the entrance hall of "Watford Electronics" in Luton, it's in a very dusty case in a corner under a laptop, and probably is the reason that "Watford" started off, back in the days when they were a "proper" outfit.

I was wondering if anyone has a source for colored ink for the Okidata 182 Turbo. And by this I mean a single color ribbon other than black. I seem to recall that I used to have a
green ink ribbon for this printer, and also a red one, but I don't know where to source them.

There was a small commercial business in all manners of KIM-1 enhancements, including even a S100 style enclosure with a single
floppy drive. This doesn't surprise me in the least--some of the KIM-1 aficionados could be almost fanatical.

I take it that there's a real
3B1 under it all somewhere?
Could that be a VoicePower card? There are a few of them still out there, answering the phone for collectors.

I had about 5 of these machines complete with crates full of cards, manuals etc etc.
I still have some parts but not much. I gave everything to Getronics who has started a
private collection of Olivetti equipment (as they own the brand now).

Sorry if I have so many questions at first. Maybe I should've split them up.
If anyone can help (especially with the
SWTPC), I'd be most appreciative!

Most of the early MSX software will run on a MSX1. Make sure to get a 64K model. There were models with anything from 8K to 64K RAM. MSX2 is more fun: usually more memory, more colours, slightly better graphics, more natural to use 3.5" disks. However MSX2 computers usually are more expensive, in particular those imported from Japan. If you want to
get wild and crazy, go for a MSX2+ of which only...
