I love fun finds like this! I'll have to check it out more thorouly later, but some of the cars sure gave me a chuckle with those crazy wooden fins! Thanks for sharing!

Not shocking, my first computer had 24K ferrite bead RAM, over 200 boards with 4700 chips and consumed over 2KW electricity. The mass storage was 1 MB on open reel tape.The components alone were over $5000, plus at least three times as much for labor (then again it was 1973).

But: nice find.

Really fun site

Endless Entertainment...indeed. Great site

"The new 16K RAM card that turns your computer into a working giant"



*pets my 4gb of ram*

Haha 'Blow in her face and she will follow you anywhere."

Glad you guys liked it.


I know, that one cracked me up.

Fun site! Thanks.

I like the ad that says "The New 16K RAM Card that Turns Your Computer into a Working Giant"

I remember my Commodore 64 with a cassette drive that I had as a kid. Probably around 1982 or so.

I wish I could remember what the retail price of those were. I'm sure it wasn't cheap.

this site was cool-thanks for the link!

The initial price was $600 plus peripherals.

I don't know why, but it is the only notable early computer I don't have, no idea what happened to the one I bought in 1982....

Thank's. That's pretty close to what I would guess.

I remember in middle school ( grades 6-8 ), we had Apple II and Apple IIE's. Typing in programs in BASIC language sure was a chore. Especially when I'd make plenty of mistakes.

I still have an Apple II, was quite a nice machine..in its day.

Haha, pretty cool site.

When I was 13 years old, which would of been 1983, my best friend had a computer. The first one I had ever seen. There was a game in which you could decorate a house. Paint the walls and floor, pick some furniture. I remember being able to pick a bird in a cage which made tweeting sounds, and a gold fish in a bowl that swam in circles. I have no idea what type of pc it was though.
Anybody remember that?

That would put me at exactly the same age as you.

But no. I don't think I remember that game. It sure doesn't sound familiar.

I loved that game. I would like to see it again. Memories,

Do you remeber games from then "ohio traveler"?

Somewhat. My brother and I did get an Atari 2600 when they first came out. I remember most of those games. And then we got a Nintendo. But my interest in video games was going away at that point. You know. Girls and beer sort of took my interest. I still played some games on the computer. But at some point I developed a short attention span.

If I went to an arcade I would usually end up in the Skee-Ball area. I still love Skee-Ball.

LOL - I laughed at that one too...

Great site!

Skee Ball is a blast.

I had an Atari and Nintendo growing up to. Now my boy friend and I are collectors and gamers. We own Atari's, Nintendo's, super Nintendo's, play stations, game cubes, and on up the ladder. Man it's fun.

I love windows, and i love this site.
