  • Bionic Beaver

    From DW@21:1/148 to All on Wednesday, June 09, 2021 15:41:40
    Hi Everyone,

    Anyone here use a Bionic Beaver back in elementary (or even high school) back in the 80s or early 90s?

    If so, and you know what that is... you're as old as me and your back probably hurts! lol

    The Unisys Icon, developed for the Ontario Ministry of Education (1984-1994). Was a great machine, every kid who ever used one will remember seeing how fast they could spin that track ball, and trying to keep the truck on the road in Cross Country Canada. :)

    Classic 80s elementary school fun.

    I never heard of it, or don't remember it. I was already out of
    university by the time the pc was introduced. My univeristy
    had it's own network of *nix computers tucked away in different
    buildings all over campus.

    That sounds like another name we'd have given Lindsey Wagner back
    in the day <G>
