Peter Purves is introduced to a computer on Blue Peter today in 1972, one installed eight years earlier and being given away by a batteries firm to anyone who could use it if they have the space and remarkable amounts of generation.
"Just about the best giveaway ever!"
Peter Purves is shown a computer that - just eight years ago - cost over 150,000 pounds. Now they're literally giving it away for nothing. Do you fancy getting your hands on it? You'll need quite a bit of space, and somebody who can operate it.
