The RetroSessions are usually held in the WhateverLab, in a corner which we are now dubbing the 'RetroZone'. A semi-permanent installation in the RetroZone is currently set up for those who don't want to wait for the next session to get their fix - at the moment, the computer available for your hacking fun is a ZX Spectrum +3 machine, with a Light-gun accessory and a few disks full of moderately entertaining games (Try the LightGun disk, and also the Action Pack has GAUNTLET for those who know what that is..) | |||
Feel free to play with the machine in the RetroZone, but try to keep it in operational condition for others - i.e. don't format the discs, or do anything else that would make it impossible for someone else to play with it. | |||
We will occasionally swap out the RetroZone machine for others, so even if you can't attend a RetroSession, if you're interested in Retro- computing you may want to check in on the RetroZone for an update now and then. | |||
