    If you were well off in the 60,s your mum might have had one of these Happy

    I've still got one, original sixties,which is still going strong. and has all the original attachments.  BUT, we weren't well off, and it wasn't my mother's! I bought it for £1 at a garage sale a year or two ago.

    And we all wouldn't be contributing to this thread without the first 'Personal Computer'.  Now what a revolution that has led to!  The internet, Skype, Club Together and all the other things we wouldn't be without these days!
