Just found this podcast a few months ago and have been listening to a few episodes each week. I knew a lot of computer history, but not nearly as much as I’ve now learned from Advent of Computing. Great stories and so well researched.

Great podcast as usual. In the early 80s I lived in Columbia MD, home of Columbia data products. We used to get motherboards from their dumpster. They were one of the super early clones made right in MD. My first clone was bought at the Howard county Ham Fest in 1982. It was a turbo XT clone...Read full review »
