Item
A 1990s Japanese engineer\'s pocket computer that still wakes up, shows its MAIN MENU and takes your keystrokes.
What it is
SHARP PC-E650 pocket computer (64KB built in) from the early 1990s, made in Japan, together with the genuine SHARP CE-2H32M 32KB expansion RAM card. The card carries a TASCAL label, the surveying program widely used by Japanese civil engineers at the time.
How your days could look with it
- You drop in four AAA batteries, press ON, and the crisp LCD greets you with the MAIN MENU, exactly as it did on a Japanese building site thirty years ago.
- On a quiet weekend you type your first BASIC lines on the tiny keyboard and watch them run, the way programmers learned before smartphones.
- On your shelf of vintage calculators it becomes the piece visitors pick up first, with the rare RAM card sitting in its SHARP PC-E650 (64KB) / RAM card: SHARP CE-2H32M (32KB, TASCAL label)
- Serial numbers: 97002973 (computer) / 97017874 (card)
- Label: DC6V, 4 x AAA (R03) and 1 x CR2016. MADE IN JAPAN
- Checked by the previous owner: powers on, keys enter characters, LCD and MAIN MENU display clearly, no noticeable LCD bleed. Battery compartment is clean, no leak marks.
- Not checked: whether the TASCAL program on the card starts, and any deeper functions.
