    #3 Well, well, well! We actually did it and we find ourselves back for another issue. #"6% Its been hard going but it is now complete and in your hands. Once again thanks to everyone that made this possible, the writers in particular who gave up their time and creative efforts. And another thanks to the people who came out of the woodwork between issues to offer VCF-GB REPORT a hand in other ways. All going well we will march on forwards, towards issue four, but AN EXHIBITOR’S PERSPECTIVE honestly, we cant do it without you. Really. MARK WICKENS Going back a bit to last issue, it is worth throwing out a “Congratulations!!!” to Derek, who won the Atomic Robot competition. Well done Derek for walking to the post office and being randomly chosen! From my perspective receiving the post cards, it very was nice seeing stamps from different parts of the world. It seems I can pretty much geek out about anything. Thanks for sharing. Anyway back to this issue. As always we As the cat winks at me from a cushion on the sofa, and Stevie Wonder sings have some things of ‘everything is all right’ I start penning my thoughts on the first ‘official’ Vintage interest to the newbie Computer Festival in the UK, *ever*. Having never quite made it to VCF-E (the and to the hardcore geek.

  • Discovering Eastern European Pcs by Hacking Them. Today
    Discovering Eastern European PCs by hacking them. Today Stefano Bodrato, Fabrizio Caruso, Giovanni A. Cignoni Progetto HMR, Pisa, Italy {stefano.bodrato, fabrizio.caruso, giovanni.cignoni}@progettohmr.it Abstract. Computer science would not be the same without personal comput- ers. In the West the so called PC revolution started in the late ’70s and has its roots in hobbyists and do-it-yourself clubs. In the following years the diffusion of home and personal computers has made the discipline closer to many people. A bit later, to a lesser extent, yet in a similar way, the revolution took place also in East European countries. Today, the scenario of personal computing has completely changed, however the computers of the ’80s are still objects of fas- cination for a number of retrocomputing fans who enjoy using, programming and hacking the old “8-bits”. The paper highlights the continuity between yesterday’s hobbyists and today’s retrocomputing enthusiasts, particularly focusing on East European PCs. Be- sides the preservation of old hardware and software, the community is engaged in the development of emulators and cross compilers. Such tools can be used for historical investigation, for example to trace the origins of the BASIC inter- preters loaded in the ROMs of East European PCs. Keywords: 8-bit computers, emulators, software development tools, retrocom- puting communities, hacking. 1 Introduction The diffusion of home and personal computers has made information technology and computer science closer to many people. Actually, it changed the computer industry orienting it towards the consumer market. Today, personal computing is perceived as a set of devices – from smartphones to videogame consoles – made just to be used.
