Yes, possibly.
That’s likely, but I wonder whether any other office workstations were actually developed.
Because it’s the most effective and powerful tool for putting the Unix philosophy into practice.
You’re welcome, enjoy.
There are plates with labels and information but they’re small, easy to miss, and not for all items. But the venue is still relatively young and more work is underway.
What’s even more remarkable is 95% of the items on display still work. And they have lots more in storage.
They are car enthusiasts too, so that’s why there are some such vehicles. The bulk of the material comes from the personal collection of one of the founders of the group.
VokoscreenNG is a screencasting tool that works with Raspberry Pi OS, I tested it on my Pi 400. And it’s also easy to install, just sudo apt install vokoscreen-ng gstreamer1.0-pipewire
.
I’ve updated the post.
Lisp, the language that has them all.
Looks nice indeed, thanks.
Interesting suggestion but possibly overkill.

Old fart Boomer here, my first computer was a Sinclair ZX Spectrum.
Reading computer magazines and books, and eagerly anticipating getting my hands on such material. Today’s kids born in an online era of infinite content just can’t imagine how difficult it was back them to get technical publications and information, printed or otherwise.
Zutty, the Zero-cost Unicode Teletype which the developer describes as “A high-end terminal for low-end systems”.
You’re welcome.
My first was Slackware.
At the time I used Slackware and Red Hat which definitely required tweaking at least xorg.conf
and more.
Such a feature was relatively common on desktop and workstation hypermedia systems.
Thanks for the feedback, I edited the submission to move the link to the description.
An interesting view. But the PET was definitely lower specced than the later 16/32-bit machines usually regarded as workstations.
