Sharp – PockEmul

Thanks to Robert, a PockEmul’s fan, the Sharp PC-2500 English Operation Manual is now available.

I will add it to PockEmul 2.4.0 but you can download it from here now.

Be sure PockEmul is closed before openning the globe.pml file.
If your PockEmul is prior than 2.0.2 you might have a memory error. Just click OK, it has no side effect.
It is fixed in PockEmul 2.0.2.

You certainly remember the programmable pocket computers and calculators that appeared in the late ’70s and had their golden age in the following decade.

Many computer scientists today have made their first steps with them. Those who have turned to other passions, keep the memory of having lived the genesis of a science that has today invaded our lives.

If you have not kept your vintage machine, or dream of typing on models that were inaccessible to you, PockEmul can satisfy your nostalgia by reliving these wonderful technological objects back inside your smartphone or tablet.
