| Message | Hi i have been a Tatung enthusiast for a number of years,the reason is that the (TM 01 A)Monitor fits directly into my Texas Instruments Home Computor as they share the same graphics chip through the YUV socket, so the question is after 1 to 10 Years of using my TWO MONITORS i now have them for sale, with only TI994a leads,they have been well used but work fine.I now use small flat screens with VGA adapter for my TI. i have included a hole into the top of case for 2" cooling fans to keep the heat down,and it works.I aquired them for £50 each and would be asking for £20 plus about £20 postage. |

| Message | Fascinating site. I saw a quote on another site speaking to the idea that at some time or other just about every game developer in the Northwest of England was using one of these to develop stuff for other computers. I guess I was one of those and I remember wiring up cables for the C64 and Amstrad, then readying software on those devices to make them receive the code as the target system. It was a great setup and the Einstein contributed enormously to the UK game development industry. This was how I came to be an Einstein user very briefly and I kept hold of one of the machines for several years after. Despite my very specific use for it, I was quite fond of the machine and my heart was broken when it was stolen. I remember it as a very robust machine, very well made. I opened it up several times to look and would often think of how expandable it was - ideal for many projects. Great for tinkering, being a hobbyist/enthusiast. It embodied everything about what a home computer for the era should be. |

| Message | Good to see the Einstein is still remembered! Your website has brought back a few memories! I used to work for Surrey Software, and developed Popup, Neil's 20 Utilities, SSSpell and GraphDraw. Moved on from Assembly and BASIC to Turbo Pascal on the Einstein. Dad developed WP80, The Accounts System and Project Planner. Great days! Neil  |

| Message | Hi great to see this computer has not been forgotten, I worked with it in the Tatung design lab in Telford and found it great fun. I particularly liked its version of BBC basic which I had some experience of using previously. |

| Message | Hi, Just found the website. Can't wait to download those old user group magazines! I had the Einstein when I was about 11 years old. I learnt to code on it and met many good people in the process - Anyone remember Surrey Software Services? Anyway take care and keep up the good work! |

| Message | Just scored a dual disk Tattie with 80 column card, Tatung monitor, Tatung printer, Tatung dust covers, a load of disks (~60 of them) and a collection of manuals, books, magazine clippings, etc, etc. Quite a trove! Hoping there is something here you don't have, so I can contribute. Also emailed you - let's talk.. |

| Message | As a founder member of the UKEUG I wrote many of the articles found in the monthly magazine. Along with the co-founder of the UKEUG we hired the Motor Cycle Museum at the NEC to put on the first exhibition of all things Einstein related. As soon as I get to a location where internet access is a little quicker (I live on a narrow boat) I will download all those magazines and have a real good read, if I can find a linux decoder for them. Keep up the good work. chris |
