ChrisH Posted February 7, 2006 Posted February 7, 2006 I must build one of those machines for the office to answer the phone!!!
SpuffMonkey Posted February 7, 2006 Posted February 7, 2006 I found it quite funny...the commodore PET in the background got me..and the ZX80/1 crack..we have one in the office here...was it the ZX80 that didn't have the rubber keys? Ian was about to crack it open as a display for the kids about "how computers used to be", then he realised how much they go for.. Sadly I had these - the ZX80 and 81 had flat plastic keypad, it was the much beloved Spectrum with the squishy rubber keys.
webman Posted February 7, 2006 Posted February 7, 2006 I'm too young to remember all the "old classics" My first foray into the world of computing was a used Amiga 500 in 1997 8O
Guest richard Posted February 8, 2006 Posted February 8, 2006 The ZX81 was my first ever computer. I can remember being overjoyed because my parents had brought me the 16K expansion pack to go with it as non of my friends had the expansion pack with theirs.

TechMonkey Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 Anyone else having problems getting the Online versions working because of the licensing? I keep being told that the server can't be found, either from the web page, from Media Player or from downloading and trying to play locally

This was for a copy I downloaded. Dissapointing episode though I didnt laugh once

Ric_ Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 The nasty DRM hateses my Mac Luckily there are other places to download it on the web. A simple Google will help you out Remember to delete the file after watching so that you don't breach copyright
