When my school bought its 3016 (1980?) it was a revelation. I had seen the big orange ICL mainframe where my dad worked, a room full of big cabinets and whirring disks & tapes, but this was a computer on a desk! >If anyone's interested, I've got a 2nd edition of Nick Hampshire's 'The Pet >Revealed' That, and Zaks' book on programming the 6502, certainly fuelled my enthusiasm and many hours with a switch connected to the NMI line and the MLM. I'm still fascinated by computer schematics, and dabbling with the hardware. ;-) Thankfully Google is missing many of my early postings.
