  • KIM-1 – The KIM was a very usable single board computer that popularized the 6502.
  • COSMAC Elf – The COSMAC Elf was the first computer I personally owned and this site has a very faithful graphical reproduction of the system, along with a few extras.
  • TRS-80 – I still have a model III, but you can run a virtual one in your browser.
  • Amiga – The Amiga had a lot of features that were ahead of their time and you can try an Amiga 500 here.
  • Mac – If Windows isn’t your thing, you might enjoy trying Mac OS 7.
  • Or maybe you’d rather play Wolfenstein and a few other games. The site has some preconfigured demonstrations (including Windows 1.0) and you can configure your own, too.
  • PC/OSI – This is actually two different emulators: one for the IBM PC (which is hardly an old computer, by my estimation) and another for the Ohio Scientific Challenger 1P.
  • I know a lot of people don’t want to post their work into a “cloud service” but I’m willing to risk my 30 line BASIC program that guesses your number. No software to install, no hardware to set up, and many of them are graphical. On the other hand, there are quite a few old computer emulators that run right in your browser.

    Options like SIMH and Hercules work well, but they aren’t always graphical and it is a lot of work to set up a machine just to play with for a few hours or to show a student how it was done in the good old days. Another option, of course, is software simulation. It is even worse with the really large machines, some of which require special power or cooling and are hard to keep running. However, it is hard to justify the expense and the cost of either the real things or the replicas. I have a replica Altair, a replica Elf, and a replica KIM-1. There have been a few replica retro computers of various degrees of fidelity and they are usually cheaper and smaller than the originals. However, I got rid of my Data General hardware and I lost my old 1802 COSMAC Elf in some flooding. I do have my old original TRS-80, and an old serial terminal (see the video below). There are two things that keep me from expanding my collecting old computers: the cost and the space required to house them.
