Unearthing Nostalgia: Discovering My Dad’s Sharp PC-7000

During a recent tidy-up of our shed, I stumbled upon a fascinating relic from the past: my dad’s portable computer, the Sharp PC-7000. This vintage device, a technological marvel of its time, immediately took me back to a different era of computing.

Equipped with a memory of its own, the PC-7000 still managed to power on when I plugged it in, even after years of residing in the shed. It’s a bit of a spider magnet, but I couldn’t resist capturing a moment with it perched on my lap. I even discovered that we still have floppy disks that can be used with it, adding to the nostalgia!

Reflecting on this find, it’s clear how revolutionary the Sharp PC-7000 was during its heyday. My dad took it to his classes, making it a part of his educational journey. It’s intriguing to think about how this small piece of technology played a role in shaping his experiences.

As I share this story, I can’t help but feel a connection to the past. This discovery isn’t just about an old computer; it’s a reminder of the evolution of technology and the memories tied to it. What have you found in your own shed or attic that brings back a flood of memories?
