Pete's Log: The Rabbit Hole

Entry #2252, (Fediverse, Random Crap)
(posted when I was 44 years old.)

My Federoth timeline continues to evolve. While it continues to be dominated by gardening posts, retro computing (and especially retro Apple) posts have started increasing as I found a few more interesting accounts in that space to follow today.

What really got my nostalgia going, though, was posts about HyperCard. And I keep looking at the box I still have for The Manhole, a.k.a. "where Alice would go if the White Rabbit had HyperCard." It was a hugely influential part of my childhood.

I'm pretty sure at some point I found myself at Micro Center feeling real tempted to pick up a floppy drive to install in Esgerbeastie. Maybe I still should, then I could see if my Manhole floppies are still readable.

Though I've also been informed The Manhole is available on the Internet Archive, among other places...
