Nostalgia meets technology: A look back from Spectrum and Amstrad to PCs of the 2000s (Episode 19)

from That IT show · host thatitshow

Welcome to this episode of our podcast, where we'll be taking a bit of a trip down the memory lane to our early computing days. Basically, you can treat this episode as an "Intro to computers and computing" from less-than-adult kids who were born in the late 70s/beginning of the 80s.  Back then, the world of computing was a vastly different place than it is today. Computers were not as widespread as they are now, and there was much to learn about these new, exciting machines. In this episode, we will explore the early days of home computing and the machines that sparked our curiosity. We will discuss the differences between the Spectrum and Amstrad, their unique features, and how they compared to other computers of the time.
