Fellow Classic Computer Enthusiasts,
I was rewatching "30 Years in the Tardis" last night and came across an item
on the tape I had forgotten about. It's been years since I watched it, and
the last time was long before I started tinkering with classic computer
emulators. Anyway, while rewatching it I was thrilled to come across a
commercial with the Doctor and Romana advertising a Prime computer. I found
some info on the net on the Prime computer line, such as:
http://www.malch.com/prime/
on the net but no mention of an emulator. I also found some manuals on
BitSavers.org. Having been a Doctor Who fan for years, and with Tom Baker
being my favorite Doctor, I'd love to have the opportunity to experience a
computer system he endorsed.
Why not just pick up a Prime? They're out there. Some of them are even
not all that big.
Peace... Sridhar
