"20 GOTO 10" Retro Computer Facts | TNMOC Talks

[@G7VFY]

I used to work for two computer shops between 1979~92 and sold and owned most of the popular and unpopular home and business computers. The USA version of ZX81 (Timex 1000) had 2Kb of RAM, rather than 1Kb ). In my opinion, the strangest home computers sold in the 1980's were the TI-99/4, The DAI computer, The Powertran PSI-Comp80, the Powertran Cortex and the Camputers Lynx. Being a radio ham, I was an early adopter.

Great talk. Certainly good to learn about some the hidden gems of early computing in the 80s. Especially the Nintendo trick.

Thank you so much for the Silicon Nostalgia! Being in the USA I had the Timex version of the Sinclair ZX81, for about two minutes before I called to get a return number. The C-64 is something I still use for gaming (through emulation) to feed my Repton addiction.
