A Vintage Computer Collection In His Loft

Youtube videographer Loftbits says

"Have been collecting them for years and finally managed to prepare a 'decent' place (my loft) to get some of them out of their boxes... A bit of this, a bit of that - portables, luggables, pocket ones, 8-bit and 16-bit, from the West Side of the former 'Iron Curtain' (Sinclairs, Amstrads, IBMs, Sharp, Toshiba, Schneider and likes) and from the East one (Polish Meritum, Elwro, CA80, Unipolbrit, Czech Didaktik, Russian Lviv and others).

Vintage computers - for some, they are just a pile of junk, but some do recognise the subtle hint of digital nostalgia emanating from those old 'bit counters'. I dedicate this video to all those who, like me, enjoy seeing the 'old junk' up and running. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you: the LoftBits!"
