And thusly were the wise words spake by Sellam Ismail
Two more sightings of vintage computers in old movies to report. Has
anyone seen these already?
I was watching This Is Spinal Tap (in-flight movie) for a bit and there
is a scene where they're on the tour bus and some dude is playing Missile
Command on a TRS-80 Color Computer (the original gr[ea]y model).
Right now I'm watching TV (hotel cable) and George Carlin is on
(AWESOME!!) and in his set there's an original Macintosh (or it could be a
512 or Plus) in the background. I don't know the name of this set.
Isn't someone maintaining a list of these somewhere?
These are not vintage computer but vintage arcade game sightings.. In
the move "Midnight Madness", released in 1980, the characters have
the play the game "Star Fire" to get a clue.. But the cool part
is the many shots of the game "Death Race", even though this game
is never played. Death Race did not have a CPU but used TTL chips.
Cheers,
