Stumbled across this today via a Youtube video about getting a C64 online (as you do):

http://frogfind.com/

It's an http-only (ie no https) search engine geared towards retro computers. It uses the least possible HTML and uses DuckDuckGo results for actual content.

Thought it might be of some use to people here.

During my loft digging I dug out an old Retro computer that's not seen the light of day for 30 years.
A Transam Tuscan s100, using a Z-80, sold as a kit of parts in 1980. I was given it assembled by a manager when I was a young apprentice, I had it working back then, but its not been powered in over 30 years now.

Hopefully the wooden case gets classed as 'Retro' :lol:

Amazing how few years separate it and the QL, things were moving fast in the 80's.
