  • Jack Tramiel RIP

    I must have missed it but I saw no thread for Jack Tramiel. A true pioneer in home computing and, I guess, office as well.

    As a matter of fact I did see this the other day. It didn't occur to me that no one would bring it up here.

    Sad, anyway. Some life!

      I had Commodores ranging from the PET to the A4000. Quite something for the day, and I still have several.

      RIP Jack.

        C=64 and A1000 with 1.5MB through the A590 ST-506/SCSI HD/Memory expansion controller (for which one had to bend a thick metal plate and rework joystick-plugs). If only I had real time to play I'd get me some of those again.
