@gorplop @foone You wouldn't know unless you knew - the Iomega branding has been airbrushed off the chip. Anyway if you want to see inside - if the rain lets up I'll be decapping a RUCIFY ASIC tonight. Hopefully I can get some nice pictures for SiliconPr0n.
I'll probably do the same with the head amp and channel drive chips, I have a complete dead drive and the best pics available are low-res full die shots. -

Heh. Looking for details on old Iomega ASICs and happened upon this old @foone post:
https://x.com/Foone/status/1460846306981601281/photo/1It's a Zip drive main board!
Rucify is the ATAPI controller used on more recent Zip drives. I can't tell what the board is from though, possibly an external drive PCB which could be built as an internal?

@foone What software are you using for this? I don't think I've seen this one before - unless it's Applesauce, which I don't use very often.

Two fixed #TeliContact telex handhelds! New batteries installed. Just need to leave them on charge for about 12 hours. For some reason the display contrast on one is awful.

Related to where I've been, Inn on the Lake in Milton Keynes does bloody good pie and chips.

I finally looked up where these cool stickers came from. Probably 33c3, maybe EMF, definitely SKIF.

I was about to look up the characters on this one (they looked like Wingdings).
They're not Wingdings.
Let's see if anyone spots it... -

@ftg @gorplop @0x47df I have a Workabout Pro I occasionally think about turning into an Inventree client, but that means writing code for Wince...

Movie night ruined by Google TV refusing to send surround audio to the decoder (despite Plex and Amazon on the exact same Chromecast working fine)... And then the rear speaker amp on the decoder went pop.
Grumble.
