THIS SOVIET COMPUTER has been FORGOTTEN FOR 30 YEARS!

UPD: For the background of ES1841 computers in post-disaster Chornobyl Exclusion Zone, watch the first episode:    • Extreme Restoration of a Soviet ES1841 PC....   About specialized expansion cards:    • Soviet scientific computer cards for ES-18...   Your requests (trying the CP/M, Error 2000, playing Tetris and so):    • Playing ORIGINAL TETRIS and other classic ...   Greetings from Ukraine! Our Patreon:   / thechernobylfamily   Buy us a Coffee: http://buymeacoffee.com/chernobylfamily ES-1841 is a Soviet i8086 clone-based IBM PC/XT-compatible computer. The same were used in the Chornobyl Zone in post-disaster works e.g. by SP Spetsatom based at Jupiter factory in Pripyat (see the Ep.1 for details). This particular machine is NOT from the Zone but fully identical to those remaining in Chornobyl, and has been assembled from 3 different sets found all across Ukraine. In this episode, we will start a restored computer in full configuration for the first time in nearly 3 decades! We will review and try some historic programs and, for sure, will play the legendary Digger!
