Now, to turn this back to an on-topic thread, the
microcomputer used in
"War Games" was one of the last IMSAI's if I recall correctly. And does
anyone know what computers where used for the graphics in "Tron" and "The
Last Starfighter"?
Tron was animated by hand. No computers were used, except where you
actually see them on the screen.
Since I am writing, I thought I might contribute this little piece to the
thread:
I watched a German soap opera about ten years ago. It was about some
hospital and they had a computer, for storing the patient records, I
assume. It was a C64, which would not have been impossible at the time,
only someone obviously thought it didn't look cool enough just sitting
there by itself, so they built it into a wooden panel and added some
flashing lights and buttons.
