🛠️🍏 Next week, our volunteer Andrés will begin assembling a museum replica of the Apple I computer. It's an "open lab," so feel free to get hands-on, as it will take place in the classroom on the 1st floor. All are welcome!
Would you like to hear what the radio transmission of the game sounds like? 📻 Here's a recording for those who missed it. 🎙️ PS. You can also record the game from this video. 📹
40 years later, a game for the ZX Spectrum will be once again broadcast over FM radio! 📻 Anyone who still has a working Spectrum ZX will then be able to test the game. 🎮 Those who do not have one can do so at the museum or online. 💻
We invite you to a public discussion titled 'Liberate Ljubljana!', in which the organization Citizen D continues the campaign to problematize public video surveillance in Slovenian municipalities. The discussion will take place at our museum on Wednesday, May 8, 2024, at 11 am.
📻 We are broadcasting a ZX Spectrum game over the air in collaboration with Radio Student! This week marks Radio Student's 55th anniversary, and they were among the European stations broadcasting computer programs over the radio in the 1980s, a tradition we are reviving. The game being aired is Kontrabant 2, originally released by Radio Student in 1984. 🎮
Get ready to tune in your tape recorders! On May 8th at 9:30 pm, we'll be airing computer programs over the airwaves! Tune in to the frequency 89.3 FM to catch a broadcast of a ZX Spectrum game. After tuning in to the radio, you'll have the opportunity to record the game onto your tape. Then, you can play it on your Spectrum and dive right into the gaming experience!
🧠💻 This isn't just a personal organizer - this little HP 200LX (1994) means business, boasting a 7.91 MHz 80186 processor and running the MS-DOS operating system 🤩
The Tandy Portable Computer 100, was a pioneering portable computer released in 1983 by RadioShack, part of Tandy Corporation. It featured an integrated keyboard, a built-in LCD screen, and ran on four AA batteries, making it highly portable for its time. 📠💻
The MSX Philips VG-8010, a younger sibling to the more famous 8020, was released in 1985 as part of the MSX standard (despite lacking certain features like a Centronics port and expansion bus.) It was the second MSX computer from Philips 🖥️ and came with 32kB RAM, a chiclet keyboard, and two cartridge slots (missing the cover in our case).
🧼💾 An unused cleaning kit for 5.25'' and 3.5'' disk drives. The liquid, we fear, may have evaporated by now. There's also the question of whether the material in the cleaning disks is still in a condition that we'd dare bring it into contact with the drive head 😅
📚🔑 This is one of the first USB flash drives - the IBM DiskOnKey - with a capacity of 8 MB, equivalent to over 5 floppy disks 💾 And yes, it still works, we tested it 😍
@muzej My first printer was a Olivetti Praxis that was converted into a serial printer; I think using the circuit from the August 1983 Wireless World. For the early 80's it was fun seeing peoples reactions to a typewriter typing by itself.
