@aditiitwt I started learning C++ in 1990 at university, and used it ever since in professional and hobby settings. Although to be fair, I've not finished learning 😂😂

@KevinToms Whsmith was definitely my favourite shop in those days. Used to hang around for ages thumbing through the computer mags and then look at all the software I couldn't buy as I had an Oric-1 at home 😭 😭 😂 😂

There are some people who say that there are not enough games on the Oric, but they did not count on @oric_rax @oric_iss

@jubrunk They can be purchased, £799 from Amazon! So the unit probably isn't 30 years old but the model line probably does hail back at least this far!

Spotted on an air bridge boarding a flight from Paris. I haven't seen tech like this probably since the early 90s.. Yay retro computing for the win 🤓 😂 👍🏽

@dpacom1 @oric_rax I'm sure @oric_rax will explain further, but this is for the Oric computers running Oric BASIC. The Oric is a 6502-based UK microcomputer from the early 1980s. Many people learnt coding on their Orics as kids which then kick started a lifelong hobby and career (e.g. me!).

Blinkenlights are back - computers seem more 'alive' when they're flickering lights at you, and if you know what to look for it can even give an idea of what the machine is doing! youtu.be/8r3NSY7bM_w
