Does an atari game system count?
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?

Use whatever OS or desktop works for you. Dual boot or use VMs if you want. Backup your computer regularly, and definitely before upgrading, partitioning, or installing an OS.
No support requests by PM please.
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.
Read the easy to understand, lots of pics Ubuntu manual.
Do i need antivirus/firewall in linux?
