wow! thank you so much for this amazing interview about this incredible formative time in the history of computing! sorry that i've showed a regrettable lack of restraint in repeatedly commenting, but please take that as a reflection of the adulation and respect that i hold for for this superb piece of work! thanks again!

"why do you think the mk14 was so popular?" because of classification, the stories from wwii took a while to come out. written up a certain way, the promise of computers was unlimited. what a stark contrast to the first kit computers like the cosmac elf, etc. lol. but we techies lived on hope and promise of getting in on the grouund floor of the next big thing. by the time it's mass market, the avant garde have moved on to the next bleeding edge.

"...microcomputer out of calculator chips..." in my teens, i had many wonderful electronics books. one in particular was far-too-well-thumbed, virtually falling apart, called "from calculators to compulators." it offered many ideas for using glue logic, interfacing 7-segment displays, keyboards, power supplies, etc. gosh it was eye-openeing. tab books was virtually an electronics education, well before college. no surpise i'm a licensed professional electrical engineer, hmm? but, sadly, without the ground-breaking experience chris had, bringing incredible opportunities like electronic calculators and the bbc micro to the rest of us : )

10 thousand line program. MODE 7. L. (only n00bs type LIST in full) and all 10 thousand lines flash past in 3 microseconds. Those were the days. :) /edit - Oh, forgot to mention, I never saw a mouse on a Beeb but we did used to have a light pen. We also had a "stick on" light detector that you put on the screen for downloading software transmitted in a spare scanline on TV transmissions. Remember that?

I have one of the Marconi undulators No.UG6A that draws the teleprinter code, I used it to fault an auto dialing machine we used to make auto testing calls in telephone exchanges ! The Science Museum had one about 40 years ago.

I remember in awe at the multiple ROM switch board that was plugged into a peripheral that connected to the parallel port. Not all connectors were at the back of the machine, they had ribbon cable connectors underneath that you had to butterfly clip to secure the ribbon cable! The parallel port had a 1kb bus speed if I remember correctly.

this is fantastic. at the end of the movie Tron, when they destroy the MCP, it looks like a man is typing on a typewriter. But it it actually a Punch Card Machine. most people will never appreciate this unless they see it in action.

Con las tarjetas perforadas, que ya habían sido desechadas, se construían las mechas para un deporte popular colombiano llamado tejo. Estas tarjetas servían como envoltorio para almacenar un poco de pólvora y se colocaban sobre un objeto cilíndrico de metal que estaba enterrado el greda(arcilla humeda). Una persona se ubicaba a varios metros de distancia y lanzaba un objeto metálico llamado tejo con la intención que golpeara alguna de las mechas para hacerlas estallar.
