Mid-80s Computer Stuff

Future City

A while back we stopped at a garage sale and I spent $2 on a little 'kid's computer' thing that was obviously a relic from somewhere near my childhood. They tested it out for me and when it spoke in a 'Speak-N-Spell' type generated voice, I was sold.

We took it home and as Linnea and I played with it, I realized that a certain subset of the cards had this wacky awesome/awful 'futuristic' theme to it. These cards were ostensibly 'vocabulary' cards, but the true opportunities to use 'self-supporting colonies' is few and far between.

Anyways, I scanned a bunch of these in a while ago and forgot about them until today. Now I've uploaded them and annotated them for your amusement.
