Well, Im happy with this new machine. Might move it to a smaller case as this one is missing the side pannel and it takes up much desk space.

A little computer from the late 80's. Almost like the ipad of the 80's. It looks like it has some panels missing for the add on ports for telephone, expansion i/o, cassette. Put in some batteries and it fired up saying "8 kb ram ok". Its a neat little thing, and the oldest computer I've ever used. …
