PolType/Cyfronex
Polish PolType is a family of microcomputer systems developed by Polish engineers in close cooperation with the Polish representative of the British MonoType company (PolType was acquired by the Cyfronex company in 1986, but the original developers remained with the company).
PolType devices were able to control LaserComp and MonoType Imagesetter machines (Imagesetter produces the printing film from which the printing plate is made โ€“ nowadays the plate is made directly, and the film is not needed).
The first generation of Poltype (1988) required its own eight-bit computer, the next, Poltype 03 and 04, used a PC XT class computer.
The 510-key POLSET 04 keyboard (for PolType 04) shown in the first two pictures was also Cyronex's own development. This was also excellent for typing complex mathematical formulas, but through it, the functions of the SW were also available (the mouse and WYSIWYG were still in a very experimental stage at that time)

The IBM 5150 is perhaps the most influential computer in history. Launched in 1981 under the name Personal Computer, the PC marked the beginning of an architecture that became the industry standard and brought innovations and features that continue to be present in the computers we use until today.

Been a while since I posted on this blog, but I got a server a while back and put Solaris 10 on it!

I have it set up as both a file server and a boot server for Sun, Apple, and PXE clients.

Some photos from the Wisconsin Computer Club's Open House Show in Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin on 3.30.24. As usual I got pictures mostly at the start and end of the show when there weren't as many people around. All involved had a great time!

Did a nice little project with my X40 today. Wanted to throw OpenBSD on it to make it a triple-boot between Windows XP, Haiku, and OpenBSD. Iโ€™m really happy with how it turned out, was loosely styling it after AIXWindows :3
