Tsja, wie moet je geloven. De ene heeft brede steun onder de bevolking en brengt een goed onderbouwd verhaal onder de aandacht, en de ander is het kabinet.

Thank you, that is indeed helpful.

I've found a local supplier that can mix Sikkens ON.00.78 for me, which looks to be close to that colour. I've been lightbrighting the plastic for a few days to see how that works out and consider my options.

I'll keep you posted.

That last one has a community on Lemmy dedicated to it: !hackernews@derp.foo.

I know. Sadly, there had been a (by now degraded) sticker on top of the monitor which left a clearly visible discolouration that I believe requires a fairly aggressive retrobright to get rid of, which I'm afraid might damage the plastics.

I understood that to be the "Putty" colour of the Apple ][, not the "Platinum" colour Apple was supposedly using at this stage.

I have one (came with my display) and it works really well. Plus it’s safe for their nanotextured displays (which are sensitive to having their nanotexturing worn off by cloth that’s even mildly abrasive).

Floppies. So many floppies.

I’m a xennial. Though we were always a bit behind the curve (my first computer was a Philips XT clone, back in the early nineties), so I guess I’ve always been retrocomputing.

But yeah, it’s kind of shocking to see people being all nostalgic about stuff I consider newish.

(And I’m still cursing myself for throwing out my CPD-G420)

Interesting. I have the classic FSSK on order. How’s the keyfeel compared to, say, a model M?
