Well, if you're going to include those... I also had a 3-bit (not K or even BYTE!) Digi-Comp I (still do!) and a Digi-Comp II. I also had this cute little "computer" that had miniature punched cards. You put a card on a tray and pushed the tray into the machine. Lights flashed and the answer (A, B, C or D) to the multiple-choice question printed on the card and the came up on a very cool-looking light display after much flashing of random lights. I figured out how to make cards with my own data on them and amazed friends and family that the machine "knew" all sorts of personal information about them! "What's Bobby's favorite hobby?" A - Skiing B - Reading C - Cooking D - Swimming When the answer came up D, Bobby got a little nervous that the machine knew him so well. Tom L Cui bono? |
