Old computers

[Clippy]

Having a bit of a clear out at the weekend I happened across my old Commodore 64 and (loads of) games from my childhood.

Got me thinking if there is any value in keeping it or if I should sell or dump it.

I also had an as new Texas Instruments computer but dumped it a few years back - really should have tried eBaying it.

What's the oldest computer you still have?

ZX81.

It is an ornament in the living room, sits beside the TV and is quite the conversation piece when visitors are round.

Jesus, I bet the evenings just fly by!

Anyone for 3D Monster Maze?

Science of Cambridge MK14.

Why it was MK14, I really don't know since there never were MKs 1 to 13 anyway.

However, since it was Uncle Clive, I'll allow you to draw your own conclusions.

Next oldest is the Jupiter Ace.

Go Forth!

We did not have computers in school in my time.

We did get AK-47 lessons though

I was a late comer to the game, my Amstrad CPC 464 is still in the loft somewhere, if only I knew then what I know now about Lord Sugar and his scum tendencies!

They had to write BBC out in full after Brown, Boveri & Cie of Switzerland threatened legal action
