You can do the same thing with some 556 timers and skip looking for an old Atari computer.

I actually did do that in 1978 with a 556 and a pair of 555's a handful of pots a bunch of switches and about 70 caps.

Wow !!! I have an old Atari 800 computer. Back around 1979-80 my "home system" consisted of an Atari 800, a single sided single density disc drive, and an interface module used to drive an Epson Dot Matrix printer.
I was firmly in the Commodore camp in the 80s.

I would make a joke asking you about whether or not she's hot, ala "That 70's Show" style but there is no need for that.
I was about 14 that year and had an affair with ... the smell of rosin core solder.

I still want an answer to that question. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
I got married in 1978 at age 22. Still married, same girl. Damn, that seems like such a loooooong time ago. :snicker:

I'll also withdraw the question but insist that the shock value of the joke makes it funny.
I was working with a guy, about 26 he was. He was telling me about being at his mom's house with a date when his mom arrived home and started making out with her date on the couch when he walked in on them. He was naked and his mom and her date were half naked. SURPRISE!
Anyway he tells me the whole embarrassing story and how he got kicked out in the end, yada yada .. .. ..
Moment of silence ... then I said, "So is your mom hot?"
After the initial shock wore off, he started calling me "Kelso."

I graduated high school in '78. Not a bad year at all, if I do say so.

In 1978 I was a hippie who believed he could change the world. And, some things did change for the better. But not enough.

I was 13 in '78. A long hair'd skateboarder and dirt-biking New Mexican teen who was already developing a insatiable taste for alternate realities.
It was also the year that most of the people who knew me started making predictions about my maximum life expectancy.
Definitely living on the edge. Fortunately, I lived long enough to become a boring East Coast suburbanite?
People are strange, but life is even stranger.
