These machines plugged into TVs and blazed our eyes with 8-bit glory as we played games, typed in programs from magazines, and patiently waited our turn while siblings loaded the latest software from cartridges or floppies. We didn't mind the limited memory, chunky graphics, or bleepy tunes-it was a self-contained electronic wonderland that could do almost anything.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe turned those memories into a new design we call \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pakronics.com.au\/products\/ADA6200\"\u003eFruit Jam\u003c\/a\u003e. Inspired by IchigoJam DIY computer kit, this credit-card-sized computer drives an HDMI monitor and mini speaker, with USB keyboard and mouse input. But instead of running macOS, Windows, or Linux, it's programmable directly-like a microcontroller. That means you can write your own games and apps using interpreted Python scripts that live on the built-in 16MB flash disk-no complex APIs or compilers required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAs always, we thank \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.digikey.com\/en\/resources\/about-digikey\"\u003eDigiKey\u003c\/a\u003e for their unending support.
