− | === What Is a Retro-Computer?===
| |
− | | |
− | To be considered a "retro- computer", the device should be any computer platform where the users have moved on, i.e. stopped using the platform. It should be a machine from the past, which maybe isn't so common any more. It could also be a common, old computer - really the only point is, its not an iBlah.
