What a geek!
random stuff to notice:
- Awesome 1mhz 64k computers with 160k 5.25 inch floppy drives
- Evans & Sutherland calendar
- “Creative Computing” and “Compute” magazines
- 45s
- D&D figures
- Awesome 9inch color monitor, um I mean TV tuned to channel 3
- Hayes 1200baud modem (or was it 300?)
- Dot matrix printer with fan fold paper
- Michael Jackson “Thriller” Album
actually there are 2 computers and 3 floppy drives. The Commodore 64 with 64k of ram and a 160k drive and the Atari 800 with 48k of ram and 2 floppy drives. The original *standard* one, an Atari 420 Disk Drive with 88k discs and a 3rd party “double density” drive that could store 176k per disk.
Gees, my current digital camera’s pictures take 3-4meg each. That would mean storing just one picture from my camera would take around 21 double density floppies or 42 single density floppies!
Sweet picture! That was back when computers were made like tanks!
uhhh you had thriller….ouch!
Wow. That brings back memories. I had the same Star Gemini printer for my Atari 800! Freakin dot matrix printers ruled.
Wow, I have that “Computers: The Inside Story” mounted and framed also! I’ve always loved looking at all the things going on in that!
