Hello, and welcome to episode 160 of the Floppy Days Podcast for February, 2026.  I'm Randy Kindig, your host.  We are currently covering computers introduced in the year 1982 and, to that end, we are at the tail end of a series of podcasts about the Kaypro line of computers.  Kaypro had a rich and varied family of computers; certainly much more so than I ever realized.  I was able to interview David Kay, son of the founder of KayPro, and president of the company for some time, in the first two episodes.  Last month, Matthew Jones, an aficionado of the KayPro computers and owner of many of the models, helped me talk about KayPro history, tech specs, and more, through the topic of using the machine.  This month Matt and I complete the KayPro series by starting with books and magazines and ending with current Web sites and a lot more content in between.
I will have a video version of this episode posted to the Floppy Days Podcast channel on YouTube (https://www.YouTube.com/@floppydayspodcast ) that will be available for everyone soon (after the early access period for Patreon supporters has expired).  So, please consider becoming a subscriber on YouTube.  Doing so helps support the podcast.
You will hear ads from some great vintage computer stores, themselves vintage computer fans, throughout the early part of this podcast.  For all of these storefronts, when you place an order, please mention Floppy Days in the notes or comments of the order.  Doing so will help support the podcast.  Many thanks!!

Hello, and welcome to episode 158 of the Floppy Days Podcast for December, 2025.  I'm Randy Kindig, your host.  We are currently covering computers introduced in the year 1982 and, to that end, this month I'm beginning a series of podcasts about the Kaypro line of computers.  Kaypro had a rich and varied family of computers; certainly much more so than I ever realized.  In researching Kaypro, I discovered that while Andrew Kay, the founder of the computer company, was no longer around, it turns out his son David, who ran the company for some time, was still around.  I was able to contact David and he graciously agreed to talk with us for the podcast.  Kaypro has a very interesting storyline and I hope you enjoy this.  We talked so long that I decided to break the interview into 2 parts, so you'll hear part 2 this month, and part 1 was last month.  Following that, we'll delve into episodes covering history, tech specs, etc. on the Kaypro.  All the usual topics.  It looks as though I'll have 2 episodes covering those topics.
I will have a video for this posted to the Floppy Days Podcast on YouTube.  One note here.  This is one of the last videos where I used a videoconferencing tool that just didn't do a great job.  It has a tendency to not keep up with video and you may note that the mouth doesn't stay in sync with the audio sometimes during the interview.  In addition, audio-wise, you may hear some low clicks throughout the interview.  I've since switched to Zoom and it seems to do a better job of audio and video quality, albeit more expensive.  In the meantime, friend of the show Brian Cox offered to improve the audio quality using some high-end tools he had, and thanks to him, you benefit from his work.  Hopefully, the clicks are gone and the sound from both David Kay and myself is better for the interview section. Thanks, Brian!
You will hear ads from some great vintage computer stores, themselves vintage computer fans, throughout the early part of this podcast.  For all of these storefronts, when you place an order, please mention Floppy Days in the notes or comments of the order.  Doing so will help support the podcast.  Many thanks!!

Hello, and welcome to episode 156 of the Floppy Days Podcast for October, 2025.  I'm Randy Kindig,  your host for this "retro"spective covering vintage computers of the late 70's through the 80's and the people who were on the forefront of that incredible revolution.
This month, I'm bringing you another interview episode with a tech media personality that was involved with the Computer Chronicles TV show (among many other things): Mr. Paul Schindler.  Paul has a big personality and has a lot of great stories about Computer Chronicles and about the tech industry in general in those days.  I really enjoyed talking with Paul and he made me laugh a lot!
As you know, if you're a regular listener, I was able to interview Stewart Cheifet some ago about Computer Chronicles.  Computer Chronicles was a great way to get information about computers in those early days and I've always wanted to do some follow-up.  Thanks to S.M. Oliva, who is mentioned in the resulting interview, and who runs a blog called "Computer Chronicles Revisited", I was able to get in contact with Paul.
Next up for Floppy Days will be a series of podcasts on the KayPro line of computers, for which I was able to line up an interview with a key figure from that company and was also able to find someone who knows a lot about the computer line to help me discuss the technical topics.  Stay tuned for that series.
As usual, I will begin this podcast going through new acquisitions and what I've been up to, upcoming vintage computer shows and more.
