History


Computer published 40 years ago:

Nascom 2 (c) 1979 Nascom Microcomputers.

The Nascom 2 was a single-board computer kit issued in 1979 based on the Zilog Z80 and including a keyboard and video interface, a serial port that could be used to store data on a tape cassette using the Kansas City standard, and two 8-bit parallel ports.

- TRIVIA -

Introduced in December 1979.

At this time, including a full keyboard and video display interface was uncommon, as most microcomputer kits were then delivered with only a hexadecimal keypad and seven-segment display. To minimize cost, the buyer had to assemble a Nascom by hand-soldering about 3,000 joints on the single circuit board.
