Introduction

You have reached the Retro Computer Lab, which is a collection of information about historical computers and electronics.

The texts are mostly in German only, sometimes in English only. Please use the language selection above the navigation box. If you would like to have an English version of a German text, don't hesitate to ask for one. Normally I can provide one shortly.
