Omega-TI Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 I've always been partial to the TI-99/4A, but for clean lines, silver highlights and simplicity, my vote is for.... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chug Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 The Oric-1. It was my first computer, and I still think it looks funky. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yak Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I always thought the old Flan looked pretty cool for its time: Sounded like an interesting machine, z80 based but with decent colour and some kind of display list architecture like the a8 IIRC. If it'd come out when they said it was going to come out I'd've been tempted to leave my Vic 20 for it. But it was delayed for years and given ridiculous names and by the time it came out everyone was already on c64s or Speccies. Where my dad worked they had one of these. Not only cool looking but comfortable to sit on. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesD Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 The Oric-1. It was my first computer, and I still think it looks funky. I have one in my collection and I actually like the looks, but I'd rather type on my old CoCo 1 chicklet keyboard than that one. The Atmos is so much better even if it does look like something from Halloween. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
