History of Personal Computing and Floppy Days performed a live recording of podcast at Vintage Computer Festival SouthEast 3.0 outside of Atlanta, GA. Present were Randy Kindig of Floppy Days podcast, along with David Greelish and Jeff Salzman (from the remote HoPC offices in Pennsylvania). Without further ado, here is the podcast. Show notes will be added in the near future after everyone recovers from the weekend! 🙂
Now that we’re firmly into the 1980’s, David and Jeff continue to cover computer systems that can be considered next-generation platforms, introducing color versions to existing model lines. We introduce to you Radio Shack’s first Color Computer, expanding the infamous original monochrome TRS-80 line of computers. Along with that, we hop over the great pond and introduce the successor to the Sinclair ZX80 and ZX81, the Sinclair’s ZX Spectrum series of computers.

Are you keeping up with the Commodores? Well we are… and HOW! Join us on this, part two of Episode 15, where David discusses its next generation cousin, the Commodore 64, and we do our eBay finds.
For your convenience (and maybe due to our laziness), we’ll put an identical set of shownote links in each part.
In this show, we decided to try and loosen up a bit with a little more active commentary (which unfortunately lead to its length). If you find this particular episode’s style better than the older shows, or prefer the original style, please let us know by contacting us through the many forms of feedback mentioned at the bottom of these shownotes.
