Does an atari game system count?
zx spectrum 48k (the rubber keyboard one)
is BASIC still alive?
I've still got a working toggle switch. Does that count?
I am surprised that anyone else has even used one of those. I am really surprised that it still works, and more surprised that you kept it.
We built one in the lab at university in the early 1970's. If I remember correctly ours used an 8-bit 6800 processor. When I graduated I began working at NASA in Houston, I remember using a PDP-11 with the toggle switch input. It has been so long ago that I am not sure which model PDP-11 it was. I think it was the PDP-11/05 that looked like the attachment.
it's the + version with solid keys keyboard and also additional keys for easier manipulation. well the keyboard membrane went bust back in the 90's but my father managed to find someone with a spare one who knew how to fix it... it has been working ever since. i just dont' use it anymore (go figure) and have it packed in the box. i switched to ZX emulators. they just load faster whic is the only thing that really bothered me. i always wanted to get microdrive but at the time when they were available it was hard to find them behind the "iron curtain" or in nearby countries.
