Retro Computing & Gaming - Cyprus

On April the 20th, Mr Vadim Dulub, his wife and their son visited the Cyprus Computer Museum and donated an Elektronika BK0010-01 personal computer. This is a 16-bit personal computer created in 1985 by the leading Soviet Union computer design team, NPO Scientific Center. It was an official government computer for personal use, mainly at home, even though its cost was prohibitive for its time.

We could argue that the BK0010-01 was the equivalent (in spirit) to the BBC Micro - a computer authorised by a government, to help the next generation of computer users at home.

We would like to thank Mr Dulub again for his kind contribution. Our intention is to document the computers of Eastern Europe and enlarge our collection - with this machine being the first!
