Sideburn is back at it with an update to his PONG on a Watchman project. This is where Sideburn takes an 80's Watchman and hacks Pong onto the device, rending it useful today. Here is the video from back in the day, but what is new is in the GitHub, so check it out Pong V2
The Github: https://github.com/sideburn/WatchmanPongV2

I just received my ebay purchase. Looks great.
I dont have on the disk everything that the readme file says I am supposed to get. I have no idea if there is any way to still find the author.
I have a serial # protected disk, going to try and use greaseweasel to copy it.

Oh wow. You just brought back memories of Operation Sundevil, something responsible for one of the more embarrassing moments of my teenage years. Do you have these articles? I remember Boardwatch well.

You know the story before the web, there was the BBS blazing 300 baud modems, ATASCII, ASCII & ANSI art, door games, downloads, and message bases buzzing. Now itโs back, of course faster, and Iโm covering it as a column for COMPUTE!โs Gazette.
From modern Atascii term programs to 1980s back in the day adventures, weโll explore the boards, the people, and the tech keeping this scene alive in 2025 and beyond.
Catch my column Dialed Back โ the BBS revival is real!
Amis,
I had a chance to read your article. Itโs nice to see the BBS scene (particularly Atari) covered in Compute!

This is very cool!
