Good evening,
It’s Monday,
A jolly holiday.
In England,
Not Norway,
They’re toiling,
I kontorer og supermarkeder.

So sing a song of jollity,
Micro beeps are coming soon,
It’s Auntie Anna and her 64,
Full of retro tunes!

Join Anna LIVE from Kilburn, London for 3.25  hours of retro micro computer comedy fun and owl based chat on SLAY Radio (the home of Commodore 64* remixes)

Picked this bit of kit up at car boot this afternoon. Think it’s some kind of PS2 to PC cable? Any ideas?

EDIT – Thanks to everyone on Twitter below:)  I will try and put it to some use and report back :D

c64er – its playstation to Parallel, try to find a driver called PPJOY

Orlovsky – Yeah, that looks an awful lot like a PS/ps2 port & memory card slot to me.

_lemon – could be a memcard reader/writer / PSX pad adapter for PC – weird looking thingy :)

simonth – it’s probably a cable very similar to what they talk about here… http://is.gd/cDIed

BadgerSpanner – But I actually can’t think of any uses for it haha

BadgerSpanner – It’s serial to playstation controller. V close :)

simonth – looks like that’s exactly what it is yep about

8bit_ben – The blue end looks like it might be for a Game Boy cartridge thingy

ldnzombie – why would you buy it if you didn’t know what it does O_O

As usual there was a C64 LIVE in the studio playing SID’s as they should be heard. An extra long show this week due to the rather large amount of games to be loaded from the Brighton Commodore 64 Swag

207 mins of retro computer things :D
