Artistic shots of retro computers and software. All photos come from my studio. Real stuff only: CRT scanlines, genuine hardware, ball mouse, wild joystick!

The exotic counter of my studio: Secret of the Monkey Island running on IBM PS/2. And a bottle of rum!

Incredible nostalgic feeling, printing BASIC programs from 8-bit machines, here the Toshiba HX-21 MSX computer, Hitachi TV and Philips NMS 1421 printer.

@capek78 I can't remember if I heard speaker sound, but in any case it didn't left great memories even if there was.

@Retroldies Strange, my 386 at the time also had not yet a sound card, but the game had one of those clever drivers to play digitized sounds through the basic PC speaker. It sounded highly distorted on my PC though, since it had only a cheap piezo beeper instead of a proper speaker.

@Retroldies Unless you worked at a small software company where the printer was next to your desk, and the office admin liked to print the entire customer list multiple times per day. Haha...

@LarryDarDar1 True! Even a 16 color screen was fabulous when you were used to 8.

@Retroldies Those 16 bit computers like Amiga and Atari ST was like super computers for people moving up from 8bit computers.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems like this is the very first online review of the Toshiba HX-21 MSX system: youtu.be/hK2Fo2Q6wCc
