#thelastone — Public Fediverse posts

A wee bit of #computing #history that may be best forgotten.
"The Last One" - "Its creator is David James, a #bankrupt former #millionaire with only a week's formal training in computers. In partnership with Scotty Bambury, a Somerset tyre dealer."

I suspect the DavidJames was an early prototype of the ElonMusk.

I was #programming #BASIC at the time and remember all the #hype in the computer press. Just seemed to be a waste of time. A bit like "#AI" now.
