Anyone old enough to remember the Commodore 64 and the Sinclair ZX Spectrum of the 1980s will feel nostalgic when thinking about their spiritual successor, the Raspberry Pi 400.
The Raspberry Pi 400 is awesome! Review, Overclock, Emulation, Tear Down
This thing is insane. It’s a $70 Raspberry Pi computer built into a keyboard. Just plug in a mouse and TV (or monitor) and you’re good to go. As an entry-level computer, it’s hard to beat.
"There are two clear audiences," author and computer enthusiast Rob Beschizza told Lifewire via direct message: "nostalgics who remember the easy-to-use personal computers of the 8-bit era, and young enthusiasts who are experiencing the unique design of a computer in a keyboard for the first time."
Back in the 80s, all home computers looked like this. The Commodore 64 is probably the best known in the US, but in the UK there was the Sinclair ZX Spectrum, a little all-in-one machine that was beloved and still has a cult following. These machines were hooked up to a TV and you sat cross-legged on the living room floor, typing software from the printed pages of magazines or loading programs from an audio cassette. There were no mice.
