Ich kaufe viele Alteisenbücher (zwangsweise) antiquarisch. Häufig bekommt man da ehemalige Bibliotheksexemplare, öfter auch mal Bücher mit Widmung (immer zufällig, darauf lege ich keinen Wert). Ich habe sogar welche mit einer Widmung des Autors bzw. der Autorin. Bisher genau einmal in meinem Alteisenregal habe ich ein offenbar verschenktes Buch mitsamt zugehörigem Dankesschreiben (nebst Rechtschreibfehlern). #vintagecomputing #retrocomputing #datageneral
OMG I used one of those back in 1979 - it was only the second computer I ever used. The first one was an #Olivetti Audit 5 Accounting machine. (sim) #DataGeneral #MicroNova
I’m gonna refine the shit out of some macro data.
(Yeah I know it’s not the same model, but still…)

Computers used to look way cooler than they do now. This Data General Eclipse system with its terminal printer is a beauty (InfoAge museum, Wall NJ).

The parallel stories of Data General, the Eclipse MV/8000, and The Soul of a New Machine. I love the book but I wish it went into more technical detail.

The Soul of an Old Machine

How to win a Pulitzer Prize writing about computers

The Chip Letter
INFINITE PAGE FAULT. Rereading Soul of A New Machine. It's interesting to see how exotic concepts like being immersed in an abstract computer environment got presented to the public. #RetroComputing #DataGeneral
