Check out the excellent Commodore 64 laptop project by Ben Heck!
To the moon Alice!  Here's an emulator for the Apollo AGC system, the computer for the Apollo spacecraft...
Computers are in movies all over the place, including many of our retro computer favorites.  For full coverage, check out the "Starring the Computer" site!
The Breakpoint 2009 demo party is over, but videos, photo collections, and reports are there for those of us who couldn't attend...
The book "Starting Forth" by Leo Brodie is a Forth language classic, and one of the best programming introductions for any language...
An account of the history of Forth can be found on the Forth, Inc. site - "The Evolution Of Forth"!
