Is it a Pravetz82 with brown paint on the sides?

Pravetz 82
normally green?

The mighty Pravets 82 was its ancestor.

This is the IMKO-2.
There were only a few hundred made afaik. Check out the pure awesomeness inside:

By the time I started gong to pc clubs, there was only one left (in my club) and i have never had the chance to play with it. Sadly, they were all replaced by the Pravets 82 and we even had (i think 4) of the "state of the art"

reserved for weeks ahead. A random had almost no chance to sit in front of one of these beauties, unless he "donated"

For those who said Pravets 82 - You jus brought back some memories....

I'm pretty sure the black keys were made from polyoxybenzylmethylenglycolanhydride :eek:

bakelite

and even if somehow your whole PC caught on fire you'd still be able to take your keys and put them into your new "build".

I wonder what Razer or Corsair have to say about that

So do we need a new computer?

Heh, I wonder how many people google'd the image via image search

Not that's I'm saying everybody cheated of course

That's a Tatung Einstein.

We had two of these in work at one time. No idea why they bought them in particular over other machines but the BASIC on them was similar enough on them to BBC BASIC, which was useful for me.

Should be simple enough this one. A modified image here helps stop google image search from working.

I'm not sure what's sadder.... That this thread exists or people are managing to guess them in like one attempt! o.O
