Microbee Computer-In-A-Book

MicroBee were an Australian computer manufacturer that was, for a time, popular with Australian hobbyists. Their first computer looked much like this, but was a kit - an uncle built it, and thus started my interest in computing. This version kept the disk drive and power supply in one of the books. Unfortunately, if you followed what the design suggested and kept the books on a book case, there was a tendency for the power supply to overheat. Although this design showed up a bit later, the first MicroBee kit hit the market in 1982.
