@simon I've been using DreamHost.com for over 15 years for both registration and web hosting. I think you can use them as a registrar without a hosting plan, too.

This was surprisingly tricky to set up on a modern computer:• Windows needs to be 32-bit because the Eudora conduit is packaged inside a 16-bit installer. Windows 10 needs some extra support files to run 16-bit apps, so I installed Windows 7 in a VM.• Internet Explorer doesn't work anymore, so had to copy the Firefox installer into my VM's hard drive in order to download Palm Desktop, drivers, updates, etc.• Outlook needs to be new enough to run CalDAV Synchronizer: https://caldavsynchronizer.org to import my NextCloud contacts / calendar• Outlook also needs to be old enough to sync with HotSync and the Eudora conduit. Office 2007 is the minimum version that meets both requirements.• HotSync and Outlook both need to be running in Windows XP compatibility mode in order for them to talk to each other and transfer data• HotSync.exe needs to run as administrator, as it tries to write all the backups/sync data into Program Files instead of the user directory.• Outlook.exe also has to run as administrator, otherwise HotSync wont communicate with it while running as administrator• My USB-serial adapter needs drivers on older versions of Windows. They were nice enough to include them on a CD, but none of my computers have an optical drive anymore. Downloaded them from the manufacturer's website with Firefox.• CalDAV Synchronizer requires a recent version of .NET to run, so I had to get Windows Update working with Legacy Update by @kirb: https://legacyupdate.net/The HotSync conduit update for Outlook 2007 is very difficult to find, luckily there's an archived copy here: https://www.palmdr.com/important-links. There are unofficial patches for 2010 and 2013 here: http://pizzaboy192.com/download/ but I'm using 2007 with the official update from Palm.#RetroComputing #PalmOS #Palm

Bought some cute #RetroGaming pins on #Etsy a few weeks ago, they really look great! I was planning to stick them on my backpack, but now I'm a bit worried they'll get damaged in the rain/snow so I might stick them on my camera bag instead.#Commodore64 #GameBoy #Dreamcast

I also ordered some little 3D printed retro computer models to put on my desk. I wasn't expecting them to arrive until later in the month as they're from a seller in Italy, but they showed up last night!#RetroComputing #Etsy #Commodore64 #Macintosh #3dprinting EDIT: I had put the link in the alt text so it the post wouldn't look too spammy, but since lots of people are asking here's a link to the shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/MicroComputersMuseum

Finally got around to installing a replaceable CMOS battery in my Dreamcast. Hopefully my VM2 will arrive soon, and then I won't have to worry about the VMU batteries anymore either!#RetroGaming #Dreamcast
