Buy the WarGames IMSAI 8080 and Possibly Impress Ally Sheedy

ilikenwf writes "Todd Fischer, the man behind this iconic prop from WarGames, the movie that spawned countless hackers, has come forward recently to announce its sale in the near future. Interestingly enough, the IMSAI 8080 still works, although the disk drive was damaged in shipping after the movie's conclusion, and was trashed."

    This is Slashdot, not the Supreme Court. Slashdot has no power over the law. At most, some of the views expressed here might influence some voters that visit here for technology news and discussion, and that is it. If you want to complain about the decision, here is the place to go:

    Supreme Court of the United States

    If you don't like the status of the law, take it up with your legislators. If you want to comment on that policy, there is another active discussion on that subject. You should post there. Complaining here in this story on that subject is useless and annoying, and complaining on Slashdot won't change anything.

    Is monochromatic as far back as you can remember? It was probably ASCII porn downloaded at 300 or 1200 baud, so it could be time to reach for the tissues before the picture even finished downloading.

    Tissues? How do you wipe off the ceiling with tissues?

    Mom gets upset when I leave stains on the ceiling so I have to stand on the bed and wipe it off.

    Didn't she complain about you standing on her bed last time? At least that's what she told me when I came over to service her. :)
