GAME : Identify the computer!

spudbynight · 2 Jun 2012 at 13:31

Hello Overclockers....I want to play a little game. So far in your so called lives you have experienced many computers. But, can you go back in time and identify those machines you have forgotten?

Look at this image and identify the computer of yesteryear. Winner goes next.

Live or die - make your choice.

An interesting game! The only winning move is... not to play!

How about a nice game of... CHESS?!
