    Makes me think that it would be interesting to have a whole line miniaturized classic computers. Maybe 1/8th scale systems. Apple, Atari, Commodores and Tandys!

    Oh man, I want an Apple disk ][ drive like this.

  4. Lorinc Del Motte says:

    Good for some Montezuma’s Revenge or Jumpman, methinks.
