Retro Super Computer




Once upon a time, in a era before apps, everything had it's place. Where men in white coats earnstly smoked pipes and nerds where safely locked up in garages. Lived ... the Super Computer!

With less processing power than a singing birthday card, these early mega machines could flash their little lights faster than a dalek on acid. So heres a Altair inspired 3D homage to one of the first…
Update - Courtesy of the esrtwhile Ockham - a version with working lights! He's separated out the mats for all the LED's, and rigged the PP2 with animated materials. Using a python script (which he's also kindly included) the Data lights move in a constant pattern, and randomly change the Address lights once per frame.

Why did the computer go to the doctor? Because it had a virus.
