Hello, Australia! Let's make LABTAM great again! - Xolod - 30-12-2022
Hi all! I am interested in restoring an Australian LABTAM computer.
Unfortunately, he is not deservedly forgotten, and even wikipedia.org does not have an article about him. I posted some technical info on the Forum
Goal to get emulation in MAME, made good progress but until the job is done, the emulator hangs when loading the OS. Also, a lot of work was done to restore the circuit and layout of two printed circuit boards.
I would appreciate help from people interested in restoring this unique computer.
Also I will be very grateful for any SOFTWARE and other information.

The Labtam computers are pretty rare as they were primarily sold to businesses, to expensive for home/school/hackers of the day. Business have a tendance that as they upgrade their computers the old one just get tossed. We dont have much info on any Labtam in our Repository other than some pics, reviews, adverts and your ROMs (thanks) but it would be great to see it running under MAME.
