That is a fascinating story, If you don't mind would you expand on it?
We're you stealing computers yourself as well? How dangerous was it?
Where would you normally go to sell a computer like that in the soviet union?
- ASalazarMX 11y agoNot OP, but I would guess the components were not to sell, but to use.
- prodmerc 11y agoNo, you could easily sell or barter them, too. We stole car parts and fuel this way, too. Because, you know, at the end of that unholy union, they were struggling to produce stuff for themselves (military, politicians and their relatives), much less for the citizens...
- gesman 11y agoI didn't steal anything, but wanted to assemble my first computer following radio schematics in Radio magazine (that article mentioned). Collected slowly bunch of parts frmo electronics store but never got into completing the project due to lack of parts.
