National Computer Museum in Blechley Park
Last time I didn’t get to the The National Museum of Computing Museum , so this time I checked their schedule five times and got into it.
Next will be a set of selective photos of what I personally caught the eye. Naturally, there are many more exhibits there.
This BBS, albeit on Windows.
')
Ancestor (s) of the era.
NeXT CUBE.
Modem, brothers, at 1200! or 300 full duplex.
Matrix watched? Remember, what modem did they teleport there?
Surprisingly, if there were no Raspberry Pi in the British Museum.
Portable laser maker.
Oh, buy this legend or what?
Brothers! Fasten seat belts. This is a whole class of working BBC Micro. Books and manuals to choose from. You can sit down and programmed.
What I did.
BBC Micro inside.
Everywhere books, new, old.
RML 380Z
PET Commodore
ELIZA is able to ask questions and answer.
The history of computer memory, from lamps to SIMMs and DIMMs.
Flash drive from the past.
Dummy microcomputers with guts out (pick). I have a weakness for them.
Would you like to learn from this in due time? So do I.
Ergonomic keyboards did not come up yesterday.
Dear business eighties computer.
Cassettes are gently parked on a huge shelf with various manuals. It turns out that they were used not only for home and family.
Going to the light welterweight. No longer desktop, but desktop computers.
Cray
PDP-8
PDP-11
Workstation XEROX.
Vax. During the years of study I “saw” him, or rather represented him, through the prism of a remote terminal.
Graphic station.
Terminals, terminals.
In the hall of the epochal personalok.
Remember this cross-over?
In the corner? We basically “know” him according to the Zonov scheme. And this is the original.
In action.
It turns out that in fact there were a lot of machines in the keyboard form factor.
This car made Bill Gates famous.
But this - two Steves, and allowed to create a wonderful Mac Air, from which I am writing this post now, dropping tears of emotion on the keyboard.
You can sit on the banquet and get chopped up in rare toys. Here are collected the main epochal gaming computers 80-90x.
In a separate room, you can chop in Flight Simulator.
Mainframes.
UNIX. The beginning of all beginnings.
Real radar monitor.
By the way, what a computer museum without wifi.
PDP-11
Analog computer. In digital computers, you break a task into elementary binary operations. In analog, you are standing model calculations based on the properties of amplifiers and feedback, forcing them to add electrical signals, subtract, integrate, differentiate, etc.
Convenient, however.
New, while not ready room.
Although something is already there.
Machines for punching punched cards.
Here is an example (attention) calculator!
Computer Weekly magazine archives, made by hand, by the way.
Brothers! This is an unreal museum. Unfortunately, it is difficult for tourists to get to it, but this should not stop real fans. What is there Trafalgar Square or London Eye? Here is what you need to watch.
I had only forty minutes for everything about everything. Damn little. If I succeed, I will leave again.
