Скачать или смотреть Computer and Videogame Collection - Video 1 - Books, Books and More... Books!

This is an overview of my collection of books for classic computers and videogame systems. I give a brief tour the many bookshelves in my garage. Then I chose some of my favorites from my collection of a couple of hundred books on 1970s and 1980s computer and game systems. None of the books are reviewed, but I do give an overview of each of the books listed here.

You can jump to the part of the video that interests you most, but watching the video from the start will give more context to why I picked some of the books.

In my next video, I hope to focus on the ATR 8000, a piece of rare hardware from SWP for the Atari 8-bit lines of computers. This expansion device allowed additional peripherals to be attached to Atari home computers. With additional memory, it also allowed the Atari computer to act as a terminal for a Z80 computer that could run the CP/M operation system.
