I came across an old copy of Popular Science on yesterday, forthwith I know
not how, that had a story of two vintage/old/retro/classic-computers. How
old? 1983. Coleco ADAM, my favourite, and Atari 600XL, not so much. I still
have my ADAM. No not why. But isn?t this why we all belong to classiccomp. And
$600. How quaint! BTW(sorry), it had an update on CP/M called CP/M Plus.
Gosh, I miss those old days.
Happy computing all.
Murray ?
I like my Coleco ADAM, but then I like my ColecoVision. What I don?t like about the ADAM
is the need to power the printer, to power the computer. End result, the ColecoVision is
setup, not the ADAM.
From what I saw last weekend at Portland Retro Game
Expo, the 8-bit Atari folks have a new motherboard that they can plug their old chips
into.
