Majdachi Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I would like to show the community my small computer room:. I hope you like it:. Thank you:. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Vorticon Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Nice, but it would be nicer if there were no credits across all the pictures at they make them harder to appreciate. Perhaps place the credits in a little corner instead? 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jedimatt42 Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 This is nice. I like the small tapestries on the wall too... balances things so the spouse might not be afraid of the room... In seriousness, I love 2 things: a bunch of systems I've never seen before, and a half dozen systems on one desk I've got seven computers operated from one desk in my corner at home... And am just starting to excavate a bedroom that no-one uses to become a functional lair... The nice shelves make the place feel comfortable. I hope you have some open workspace around for projects -M@ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Majdachi Posted September 23, 2016 Author Share Posted September 23, 2016 Speaking of a place to open a lair, i have an empty little house next to mine where i plan to excavate and relocate the machines...

+Vorticon Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 The Einstein is the jewel of the collection in my opinion. Great machine and super rare... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majdachi Posted September 23, 2016 Author Share Posted September 23, 2016 (edited) Did you notice the Matra Alice 8000 prototype with serial number 24 ? Only less than 10 exist today and maybe 3-4 are in working condition... as for the Einstein, i got it sealed with its huge manual still in plastic wrapping... but was hard to get it working on a regular TV had to buy a special cable from Europe that has power supply and RCA outs...

Asmusr Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 I have always liked the look of the Oric Atmos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majdachi Posted September 24, 2016 Author Share Posted September 24, 2016 The black Amiga is modified in a way that its speed is almost equal to an Amiga 4000, i will take some snapshots of the Sysinfo later.

Nebulon Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Nice collection. Some really unusual ones in there. Very cool. You know, in all the time I've been on AtariAge, I've yet to figure out how to post photos. How do you do that? (I suppose it's really easy and I'll be having a 'duh' moment) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Majdachi Posted September 24, 2016 Author Share Posted September 24, 2016 Yet there was also the Oric Telestrat which is ultra rare and looked even nicer... I have always liked the look of the Oric Atmos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
am1933 Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 The Einstein is the jewel of the collection in my opinion. Great machine and super rare... The Einstein actually pops up on Ebay reasonably frequently in the UK, the Enterprise pops up less often-unless you are Hungarian (I understand it did OK there).

Majdachi Posted September 24, 2016 Author Share Posted September 24, 2016 (edited) Indeed but to find the Einstein NIB is quite difficult... as for the Enterprise, the rare thing is the floppy disk controller shown in the photos previously... there is one Einstein said to be NIB on ebay right now, but the manual is not sealed so there are doubts...

+Ksarul Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 There is an Einsten 256 on eBay at the moment too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majdachi Posted September 24, 2016 Author Share Posted September 24, 2016 True, the bid starts at around $300... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnuphis Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Some great 'under the radar' systems there. Very nice. Nice to see a Mattel Aquarius in the wild too. All you are missing is a Camputers Lynx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majdachi Posted September 27, 2016 Author Share Posted September 27, 2016 Thank you, indeed there was a Lynx on ebay for about $900, did not get it because it was missing the logo sticker... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 If I was going to get any other computer than the TI... I'd love to give the BBC Microcomputer a good home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
