OzRetrocomp - Invidious

OzRetrocomp

Digital computing has been alive and well in Australia for over 70 years. As an Australian history buff that nerds out over old computers, it seems logical to somehow combine the two. I don't know where this will all end up, although looking at a number of famous (and not so famous) computers of the world through an Antipodean lens may help uncover some of this history.

I'm also optimistic that vintage computing buffs from the around the world will appreciate some insight as to how their favourite 1980s or 1990s machine was received in the land Down Under.

There's also a fair bit of tinkering and show-and-tell stuff, if that's your go.
