Thanks for the link John.
Brought back a lot of memories.
The Osbourne 1 especially. In addition to the Ossy 1 itself there were several custom versions created for the US Air Force. The hardware and software were configured for performing communications and data testing. Bit error rate, frequency response, envelope delay, and packet analysis among others.
Computers were people in a room filled with adding machines.
Programers were people that wired the on/off switches.
No one thought a computer would ever need more then 640KB.
Things Change.

last week i soldered one working c64 out of two non working :D - still the best gaming console in the world!
btw: i am a constant visitor of xzentrix, infact i am not innocent that it exists ;)
if you want to see such stuff in real life instead of pictures, feel free to visit the xzentrix 2009 computer party in germany from sept. 11. to 13. - unfortunately the english homepage is a little out of date: http://www.hepchen.de/xzx/indexte.html, but international visitors are always welcome, there are always english speakers on the party.
My first computer was an Atari 800 which had a whopping 8K of memory! ( total memory )
Oh those were the days! Livin' large!

Yep I used your link.
But it works now - must have been a stiff breeze :rolleyes:
Yep , no Vic 20, C=64 , Amiga, Atari, I mean, this history is a blasphemy ;)
What? No PCjr? I had me one of them. Lots of fun playing Flight Simulator in slow motion with the tacky plane engine sound.
Neet!
I remember my first computer was a used Atari 400.
