Jon's Imaginarium – Computer Books From the 80s via Hack-A-Day

[Visitor]

Via Hack-A-Day comes news that Usborne has released to the public some of their computer books from the 80s. Topics cover Basic programming for kids, machine code, robotics and microcontroller architecture. Some of these books should be useful for some people here who struggle with basic concepts.

Here are some pictures from the Hack-A-Day article to whet your appetite. Click the Hack-A-Day link above for the whole story or the Usborne to go directly to the downloads.

I remember reading those books in primary school, or at least looking at all the pictures.

Well, they do say a picture is worth a thousand words.... So if you looked at all of the pictures, who needs to read the words anyway?
