Atarien writes “What would have happened if technology had progressed faster than design? What would a 1980’s PC look like with with current hardware? The mod built had been displayed in the exhibition as if it would be a new piece of hardware of PC Expo 1981, with fakes ads, tradeshow table etc. The French minister of Arts even saw this mod! The article contains more than 70 photos of the whole process, with French text.Link & translated.
