RetroWiki'd

This is RetroWiki'd, a small encyclopedia mainly for some old devices such as laptops and lamps but it may also cover, occasionally, various interesting products. Most devices have been directly experienced and tested so information being provided on them goes beyond the standard datasheet, although it does not intend to replace this information. You may consider this encyclopedia as more of a reason why you might be interested in buying or using some old products if you are already slightly intrigued by them.
