Whiz Kids. A bit of 80's computer based retro TV

edited July 2014 in Chit chat
Before typing (and only before typing), I too like to exercise my hands like a concert pianist...

Anyway, what was the highly expensive looking computer that was used in it? Ralph, I think it was called.

    IRC I have one of the machines used in the show, a coleco adam computer, which I recently got from the owner of bubble bus :) and his daughter.

    sperry (later unisys) was also used in the show. reason I recall is sperry were based 10 minutes up the road on the north circular road, thx bypasses it going to the ACE cafe when he goes in the underpass.

    ralph was the computer name or the main character,does ring a bell.. I'm too lazy to look on IMDB or digital spy ;-)

    elsewhere it was called..
    Finland Tietokonejengi
    France Les petits g?nies
    Italy I ragazzi del computer
