Over at Boing Boing, a wonderful explanation of How Computers Work.
FlickrThe Commodore Amiga was announced 25 years ago today. My late A600 is still the very best computer I ever had (for its time).
Not long ago I wrote about my first computer, which my father got me for my seventh birthday. But I had never seen an advertisment for it before. (via Pedro Quintas)
Another great xkcd. I’ve saved it and from now on I’ll kindly forward this flowchart to people whenever they bother me for something that exists within a menu. Along with a link to Let Me Google that for You.

Ten beautiful computers: Boing Boing Gadgets. My first computer was a Timex 2068, which was, by the way, the first computer sold as if “made in Portugal”, like this one. Anyway, even though the Timex was actually better than the original Spectrum, the 48K Speccy will always be the coolest-looking computer ever. If only the Amiga 500 looked as cool, Apple would’ve been dead in the water and Commodore would still exist.
