Photos of the month - May 2009

Our photos of the National Museum of Computing's PC Gallery which opened last month included the retrotastic Commodore PET 2001 pictured above - which had a built-in monochrome monitor, a 1MHz processer and up to 8KB of memory. How deliciously quaint. The machine, which launched in 1977, also came with a hefty £850 price-tag.
