Tiny Computers

À propos

A museum of tiny computers. Please touch the exhibits. Tiny Computers is made for iPhone Duo. Fold your Duo into tabletop mode and it becomes a miniature machine from decades of computing, with the screen above and a working keyboard below. Spend a little time with an old favourite — or discover the computer your parents grew up with. Some computers stay with you long after you stop using them. Now there's room for them on your desk again. EXPLORE THE COLLECTION Ten computers are ready to play with, inspired by the Macintosh, Commodore 64, IBM PC, Amiga 500, Windows 95, ThinkPad, iMac G3, iBook G3, PowerBook G4 and Windows XP. TYPE, DRAW AND PLAY Enjoy clicking keyboards, working command lines, paint programs, floppy disks and familiar desktop games. Open windows, write a note, draw something small and explore each computer's personality. Type 10 PRINT on the Commodore, run BASICA ROOFTOP at the DOS prompt, or load BRICKS from the Amiga's floppy. Occasionally, even Windows crashes. FIFTY NOSTALGIC SECRETS Every computer hides five nostalgic secrets: pieces of real computing history, a hidden game and, where its era had them, screen savers. Turn on the Hot Dog Stand colour scheme, ask the 1541 for its directory, meet Rover, or fill a 1984 Mac's memory until the bomb appears. Each computer's page in the collection keeps track of what you've found. Stuck? Open a hint, one at a time: what it is, where to look, then exactly what to do. MADE FOR IPHONE DUO Tiny Computers was designed around iPhone Duo's two displays. Bend your Duo into tabletop mode to bring each computer to life across the display and keyboard. Browse the collection and choose your next exhibit when your phone is closed. ALSO ON IPHONE AND IPAD No Duo? Every computer still works. On iPhone and iPad, Tiny Computers presents each tiny computer with simulated perspective: the same ten computers, keyboards and games. On iPhone, turn sideways and switch between the screen and the keyboard. On iPad, the whole computer fits on your display. For the real tabletop experience, use iPhone Duo. All ten computers are included. No ads, subscriptions or in-app purchases.
