my first commercial computer (not my homebuilt wire wrapped 8080) was Netronics 8085 S100 Explorer ('79-'80??). It had 128 bytes - yep 128 bytes 'local' ram and 2k rom os. Booted up to a 35ASR Teletype. Storage was Cassette Tape although I could dump to paper tape on the Teletype (and read back - of course!!). Gradually added 2114 Static (whooo!!) Ram in 1k increments (1k by 4) - so 2 chips = 1k to S100 Sram board. till eventually got 4k ram. Wrote editor/assembler using op codes only at first. Was first student to get an assignment accepted by a prof at York University that was done on a home PC. Whoop-de-do.

Doesn't microscrooge have a patent on 6.3?

oh for a moment I thought they wiped out slashdot trolls...

Since 'skype' is Britishism for obtaining by nefarious means skyping Skype seems rather appropriate.

The fighter plane you see in the pictures is a Russian YAK-69. The Chines stealth fighter is the one in front of it.

Coding in DG assembler using Edit/Speed(Super Edit - geddit?). Reading a paper tape file and writing it to paper tape punch - you haven't lived!!! Where else could you yank a page??? (Yes - yank). And all on a Teletype 32 ASR!!! Multiple edits in one command without seeing the intermediate results if you were good - really good (coff coff). Ah those were the days. UE/ESC/H/ESC/ESC

It's obviously a play on 'KDE'. Nevermind.
