Was able to source the exact flyer that was handed to us in the January sales of 2000, when we bought our first computer. Found it randomly on ebay and purchased it. This brings back memories, my first PC is listed as the 500-3D TimeMachineXL 17" 😁

If you'd like to see some really retro computer advertising, check out the "Altair 8800" entry at "Daves Old Computers"

I've got a number of adds, magazine articals, documents and other material for this system produced Mid 70's.

The Altair is considered by some to be the first "personal" computer (a subject of much debate, but it's certainly
a contender)

Enjoy,

On a more serious note, this is something I wish I could've gotten back in the day. Doubt finding one now without forking out an arm and leg.
