Sometimes, lady luck shifts the winds in your favor and a chance encounter can end up with some of the coolest stuff coming home with you, and this Wangwriter is exactly that! Colin is an absolute legend and we met through vacuum tubes actually, but it turns out his mother bought this Wangwriter back in 1981 new and has been keeping it in storage ever since the late 80s when it got supplanted by a more modern PC. It’s in staggering good shape for being 41 years old, so join us as we take a deep dive into the Wangwriter!
