The MessagePad was the first series of personal digital assistant devices developed by Apple Computer (now Apple Inc.) for the Newton platform in 1993. Some electronic engineering and the manufacture of Apple's MessagePad devices was done in Japan by the Sharp Corporation. The devices were based on the ARM 610 RISC processor and all featured handwriting recognition software and were developed and marketed by Apple. The devices ran the Newton OS.

Retrocomputing (a portmanteau of retro and computing) is the use of early computer hardware and software today. Retrocomputing is usually classed as a hobby and recreation rather than a practical application of technology; enthusiasts often collect rare and valuable hardware and software for sentimental reasons. However some do make use of it.[1] Retrocomputing often gets its start when a computer user realizes that expensive fantasy systems like IBM Mainframes, DEC Superminis, SGI workstations and Cray Supercomputers have become affordable on the used computer market, usually in a relatively short time after the computers' era of use.

Con il termine retrocomputing si indica una attività di "archeologia informatica" che consiste nel reperire, specialmente a costi minimi, computer di vecchie generazioni, che hanno rappresentato fasi importanti dell'evoluzione tecnologica, ripararli se sono danneggiati, metterli nuovamente in funzione e preservarli.
The Indy, code-named "Guinness", is a low-end workstation introduced on 12 July 1993. Developed and manufactured by Silicon Graphics Incorporated (SGI), it was the result of their attempt to obtain a share of the low-end computer-aided design (CAD) market, which was dominated at the time by other workstation vendors; and the desktop publishing and multimedia markets, which were mostly dominated at the time by Apple Computer. It was discontinued on 30 June 1997 and support ended on 31 December 2011.

11 keyboards, 10 computers, 35 years of technology, all still very actively in use. The interdata model 70 might be gone by 2010.

As of June 2011, I am actively developping a Text adventure game for vintage computers.
The development machine is a Commodore vic-20 (seen here), but the game could eventually be ported to a couple of other platforms.
Almost two decades before the iPad, there was another portable ARM-based device named the A4; it was Acorn's attempt at an Archimedes laptop. Apparently it was a commercial failure; it was expensive, the platform never took off, and the screen connection was prone to breaking. Still, it looks aesthetically on a par with anything Apple were doing around then.

Mostra "VINTAGE COMPUTERS" Museo Itinerante Apulia Retrocomputing.
L'annunciata collaborazione con l'Istituto Tecnico Tecnologico "Modesto Panetti" di Bari dà vita ad un primo esperimento consistente nella esposizione di retrocomputers e retroconsoles il giorno 19 gennaio 2014.
Grazie all’iniziativa di Bruno Grampa, nella prestigiosa cornice del parco di Villa Toeplitz a Varese si è tenuto domenica 27 aprile 2003, presso il MUel- Museo Elettronico, la prima edizione di “Varese Retrocomputing”. La manifestazione si è articolata su un intero pomeriggio, a partire dalle ore 14:30, con interventi di esperti e collezionisti di retrocomputing che hanno presentato, in funzione, numerosi computer che hanno fatto la storia dell’informatica. All About Apple è stata presente con il simbolo dell’AMUG e del Museo, l’Apple Lisa, su cui è stato tenuto un keynote da Alessio Ferraro.

I really did like the Apple IIe line. This was the first model Apple I had the opportunity to try, and the funny "return" key stuck in my mind for - literally - decades afterward.

Il Comune di Forte dei Marmi, in collaborazione con Lilio Tarabella e il suo ‘Tarabella Hotel’, ci hanno offerto la possibilità di esporre, nella splendida cornice del Fortino di Piazza Garibaldi, una selezione delle macchine ‘storiche’ più significative nel percorso evolutivo di Apple.
Al Fortino sono arrivati l’Apple Lisa, il TAM (Twentieth Anniversary Macintosh), il Portable, il Macintosh 128k, i Newton, le Quicktake, il Set Top Box, l’Apple II, l’Apple //c, l’eMate, e tanti altri pezzi rarissimi del Museo All About Apple.
Yes, Lemon Computer really existed!
Lemon was an Italian 'clone' brand of the early 90s.
Bruce Bethke in his 'Headcrash' novel joked about Lemon computers. Clearly he didn't know that in Italy Lemon Computers really existed.
Obvously, I have removed the label before sending the monitor to recycling facility.
