I collect Retro Computers and Games systems. This is my Amstrad PPC 640 and 512 (Video only shows the 640 - but I have both in my collection.)
Feel free to ask any questions.
This is the video version of the RetroView on my website:

  • I was given one when I was with ICL 22 years ago. It was primitive, the screen was dire, and running Windows 2 and apps involved a lot of floppy-juggling, but it had a full-size keyboard and I could work from home with the internal modem AND I was the first in our team to get MS Word 5 (for DOS) working, ahead of the rest with their desktop PCs. After I customised it with a 20Mb HDD in place of one of the FDDs, and of course a CRT monitor, it became quite a sanitary PC. Thanks for the memories!

  • Just got one, and happy ;)

  • I own one.

  • I've never seen a computer like this before in my life. The only "PPC" computer I've used in my life was an Apple computer somewhat called PPC "PowerPC".

  • Now this is an odd rarity!
