Rare & Old Computers

One very interesting computer family from my point of view is the model series by a French company called Micronique.

The origins of their model family is an U.S. American computer called Interact Model One:

The model history of this machine continues in France with the Victor Lambda:

Now the third company continues the history of this model. This company is called Micronique.

The last model is the Hector MX:
