Yes, MK-52 and MK-61 always had a large community of tinkerers around them, exploiting hardware and software bugs (or rather the machine's extreme simplicity) to write seemingly impossible programs. The bugs were never fixed in later revisions though, so while they were fun to play with as a kid, I have mixed feelings about it as an adult engineer. Having an errata instead of actual bugfix wasn't very helpful. My uncle hated them back in the days for this, and when home computer kits appeared, he got one and never looked back. |
