Something initially conceived by Dood_Barrowstone! The whole idea floats around the old Osborne Vixen computer (sadly famous to be the last Osborne product before the 1985 bankrupt, caused by a bad advertising timing. The term "Osborne effect" was born right from this). Apart from computer history... enjoy this cute 80s fox! She wants you!... (to buy that obsolete thing ;D)
Firehazard did a similar thing a while ago, but featuring the Vixen by Commodore :D You can find it here! ^^

Loving your art, man! You're doing great, as always!
But... I'm dissapointed in you; 1980s? You are progressively becoming more modern by the second! You're SUPPOSED to be the retro nostalgia man... I have to stop watching you now because of this specific reason!
(Not really, I like you regardless of where you go with your art)

The CP/M operating system never looked so good! In my mind that gorgeous vixen straddling the Osborne is wearing nothing but punched paper tape!
About the computer in the pic, I have had the pleasure of seeing a working Osborne Vixen at the Vintage Computer Festival Midwest a couple of years ago! They are a very neat machine, and I hope to own one myself someday!
While I personally don't have any Osborne machines in my vintage computer collection, I do have one of Osborne's competitors for the early portable computer market. While the original "luggable" Osborne-1 computer weighed in at a hefty 24.5-lbs., only 6-months later in November of 1981 Seiko Epson Corporation came out with what many consider to be the world's first laptop: the 3.5-lb. Epson HX-20. Hailed as "the fourth revolution in computing" by BusinessWeek magazine, the HX-20 could run for an incredible 50-hours on a single charge of its internal Ni-Cd battery pack! Let's see your modern-day Apple or Samsung smartphone do that! It's an adorable little machine, and it even has a tiny little built-in thermal printer in it so that you could print out little hard-copies of your work! Cuter still, the HX-20 stored programs on little micro-cassette tapes that could be read and written to at 1300-BAUD and store 50KB of data per side! As for why I am able to recall all of this, my HX-20 was recently my exhibit at the most recent Vintage Computer Festival Midwest a few weeks ago, so all of this info is still fresh in my mind. These old machines are my passion!
Amazing artwork,
FOX POPVLI! As you can tell, your artwork inspired me to take a trip down memory lane!
