You don't speak C-64?

:glugglug

I guess not.... :(

I guess that means you never played Congo Bongo. I weep for you.

SpaceAce

Some people here weren't even thought of when the C-64 was born.

Isn't that to display something on the screen?

edit...


oooooooooh yeah its to change the screen colors.

Nothing sounds quit like an 808

"Destroy him, my robots!"

I wrote my first programme on a vic 20 - I thought I was king shit - and then my kids reclaimed the TV :disgust

I say we make this a "Antique Computers" thread :)

Back in the day these were THE SHIT...

Back then it was a big deal to have access to a cray -- for whatever reason you may have needed that kind of crunching power for :)


These days the massive clusters people can make sort of stomp all over any single "super computer"

Washing machines and traffic lights are run by 286's but the Shuttle flies with 5.25 floppies

anyway back to PERSONAL computers...


This was one of the strangest I think I'd seen at the time...

Say hello to Coleco's A.D.A.M

It was like the equivalent of Nintendo trying to enter the computer market.

10 IF $JoeSixPack = GAY
20 THEN KILL $JoeSixPack
30 GOTO 10

Actually.. this was a pretty strange one too...

That was actualy my fist computer, the Timex Sinclair 1000

I even had the expansion pack that boosted ram to a killer 16k
and a cassette tape drive!

very true.

:)


I was excited when I got this though....

the Magnavox Odyssey is bad-ass. it was the first home gamre console. blows the xbox out of the water.
http://www.total.net/~hrothgar/museu...sey/index.html

HOTLINKS damnit!!

Bring the museum HERE :)




But yeah I _vaguely_ remember that thing... I was born in 74.. grew up with all the cool toys of the 80's.

That might have been a little prehistoric for me

I had an Odeyssey2
I think it came out in 81 or 82
I got it, and an Intellivision as gifts for xmas

hahaha oh yeah I remember someone having one of these...

http://www.total.net/~hrothgar/museu...ey/Overlay.JPG

The Odyssey only generates white dots or blocks on the television. To give the games some sort of setting, plastic screens (called overlays) are stuck to the television using static cling. (editorial comment: :eek7) Eleven different overlays came with the Odyssey, in two sizes each. The smaller set was for 18-inch to 21-inch screens, the larger set fit 23-inch to 25-inch screens.

Included overlays were for Tennis, Football, Hockey, Ski, Submarine (shown here), Cat and Mouse, Haunted House, Analogic, Roulette, States, and Simon Says. Table Tennis did not use an overlay.




I'm guessing you had to calibrate the overlays once you clinged em up there :1orglaugh

Intellivision was the Beeee seventeeeeeeeeen BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMBER :1orglaugh

Odyssey2

It was more of a game machine but you could buy cartridges to do shit with the keyboard

I never got the intellivoice :(

Man I remember poke and peek on my old coco computer.

poke 69,69 or something would reboot and poke 65535 would do something else.

that's been along time ago :)

Yeah I remember that one... but did you see the Odyssey _1_ ? :1orglaugh

And the letter Q.

http://www.foot-print.demon.co.uk/bslsite/q-ani.gif

i had a TRS-100

http://www.old-computers.com/museum/...0_System_1.jpg

http://www.old-computers.com/museum/computer.asp?c=233

I used to write songs using tones in Basic.

NICE!!

My buddy wrote Edgate BBS for Commodore 64

"The Tandy 100 was actually a computer made in Japan by Kyocera. All the ROM programs were written by Microsoft, and even a few of them were written by Bill Gates (!) himself ! These programs include a text editor, a telecommunication program, which uses the built-in modem (300 baud), and a rather good version of BASIC (no big surprise there). "

Pretty fucking interesting... hehehe...

It had a 3 MHz processor. My current laptop has a 2.4 GHz processor. Fucked up.

my first computer was a TRS-80 Model I Level II with 4k of RAM.... ah the good ol' days

Odd, that doesn't look like a Trash 80. I had several. I remember playing a baseball game that consisted of a square baseball, three square bases and a square home plate. When the square baseball got near the square home plate, you hit the spacebar and then... you did it again. All rendered in beautiful monochrome.

3d0g

was from the Apple ][ days... These where the commands to jump from basic to assembly(psudo) and from assembly back to basic

3d0g literly mean register 3d0 (now you know where the game company name comes from) G which was a go command.

And to those folks on this thread who though they where leet old skool fred durst wannabe's cause they had a c-64... :321GFY

i remember logowriter back in kindergarten on an Apple ][ E

There was one of those old machines that you could actually enter a command in dos (I think) and it would put such a load on the tape drive that the drive would burst into flames.

Buggered if I can remember what brand it was now.
