A Soviet POCKET PC MK-90

MK-90 is a late-Soviet PDP-11 compatible pocket computer (PDA), which was a brain unit for a Ukrainian SEG-2M gamma-spectrometer used in the Chornobyl Zone in the mid-90-s. This is one of a kind device, which stands pretty apart from everything that the Soviets produced. In this episode, we will unbox it and make a short review.
