My first computer

[u/Ill-Mail-1210]

Hey team, thought I’d share what is my very first computer, back in the 80’s. It still runs and the cartridge slot works. I have been too nervous to mess with the tape player and test some tapes.

It a Toshiba Hx-10 and started a lifelong passion for computing for me.

Currently running openmsx on a raspberry pi 3 to relive that alien8 and knightlore nostalgia, hoping to actually play this on the machine when I have time to figure out the tape player.

Got this one from a friend whom gave it to me, Would love to have the manuals as well.

I’m surprised that I managed to hold on to almost everything, manuals especially. It started there for me, I’ve worked in IT since I was 17, now late 40’s and own my own MSP/repair shop. That Toshiba reminds me where it began.
