"Charles Platt’s 1984 book Micromania (known in the USA as The Whole-Truth Home Computer Handbook) examined the current state of the art in home computers, mingling solidly factual and jargon-free explanation with sardonic exposure of industry hype and lampoons of hackers and other “creatures of the computer continuum”."

Hoy estudiantes y docentes del IPET 249 "Nicolás Copérnico" de la especialidad informática, visitaron el laboratorio. Probaron computadoras que se fabricaron antes de que nacieran. Tuvimos una experiencia práctica donde teclearon algunas líneas de código, además de probar algunos programas. Gracias por venir a compartir la historia viva de la computación. #Logo #Basic #Msx #CommodorePet #Commodore64 #ensenanzadelacomputacion #microcomputadoras #microcomputers
