From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It was a great starting point for many of us... I learnt to program machine code and basic on a superboard at Ukarumpa_High_School. A very smart engineer had wired up an army surplus printer to the serial port. --PeterMarkSmith 05:56, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
Main page looks fine to me. Please someone elaborate on what is disputed - marcus bennett
[edit] NPOV?
Whoever questioned the neutrality has not cared to explain why. It certainly wasn't me!

[edit] Article issues
There are so many things wrong with this article, I wouldn't even know where to begin. If I wasn't casually familiar with the subject at hand, I'd probably tag this for AFD.
I've never used one, and the casual familiarity comes from being into Commodore machines back in the day, where you'd sometimes find a casual reference to OSI.
There are no references, and while the external links section may satisfy documentation, unusual design practices. Most every design was minimal, uncluttered, feature-scant. Think of their hardware and software along the lines of a Model T need to be cited. The POV is skewed. One single example All in all, a cheap and fun system for the real hard-core hacker, but not a warm and fuzzy end-user system, like the Apple II. The article is written like someone actually owned one of these, and was woolgathering while writing this article Even so, the disk was a blessing, being much handier than reading and writing cassettes at 1200 baud.
