@ozzelot @manamari These days, keys make a computer. If it has 70 keys, it is a computer. 1541 drive does not have enough keys :-)

@ozzelot @manamari (It used to be that MMU was a mark of computer. But sadly, C64 does not have that, either.)

@pavel @manamari @ozzelot I wonder what was the Robotron 1715 keyboard then...
It obviously included the keys and comrades also added a whole U880D CPU for good measure. The same one as the whole Robotron 1715 had inside for itself...

(Not an electric piano of course. Nowadays, that's a computer. And even in ancient days... what is creation of an analog wave if not an equation)

@pavel @manamari @ozzelot If bringing stuff wasn't slightly kinda annoying for me still, I would've brought one to ByteFEST.

I don't know if it works, it's been found in what is basically a shed and it must've been there for decades. I have it at home now, but I still didn't get the courage to crack it open to see if it's not completely rusted over inside.

I know that one of the keyboards is tho :/

@ozzelot @pavel @manamari I instantly thought about you with the Xbox.

Speaking of bringing stuff there and back. I might take you to a certain place in Prague during ByteFEST since I uhh... did some bad decisions recently and it's also waiting there. But that's for a later day.
