Mission
Retrocomputing and Hardware at Illinois serves as the place for enthusiasts of retrocomputing and other old technology at University of Illinois to share, learn, and have fun enjoying the hobby. Our primary topic of focus is computing hardware, but anyone interested in retro audio, video, gaming, and photography will feel right at home in our weekly meetings. For more ambitious members, we undertake projects aimed at repairing and maintaining old hardware for preservation, and we have FPGA projects targeting emulation as a form of enrichment and coursework preparation.
