-    text: My professor for Embedded Software related subjects in Faculty of Electronic Engineering in Nis while I studied, prof.dr. Teufik Tokic, was one of only several people who has designed both the hardware and software for this computer... Asked him about his Pecom endeavor several times, all the stories were very interesting... I heard an anecdote about it''s name, how they almost named it something cheeky, but it didn''t get accepted, so they changed that a little. :) They actually had to do much of the development from scratch, similar computers were only orientational aids in design. The basic runs much, much faster than on C64 for instance. While in elementary school, we had a classroom with 12 of these, with mostly mono monitors (although unlike Pecom 32, Pecom 64 has color support). Biology teacher put in a lot of his time, to make quiz programs for each year''s programme, they counted as written tests. He used to have to get there an hour and a half before us (he told me so)
-      so he could load up all 12 of the Pecoms with the appropriate programs. One time there was a loud pop and bzzzzt sound, and when I turned around I saw one of the Pecoms spewing fire from around the spacekey area. The boy working on it was only shocked... I guess that''s the dangers of plugging in the computer to 220v directly...

-    text: The PECOM 32 Video Interface System was my project for the Faculty of Electronic Engineering thesis at the University of Nis$ June 1984. Just few months before, January 1984, Apple announced the Macintosh computer. So, we were almost neck and neck with Apple at that time.

-    text: Did you know that CPU in this computer was one of the first european CPU and it was made in Ei PP (Elektronska Industrija Poluprovodnici (eng. Electronic Industry Semiconductors))? It was a jointly project of Ei PP and Faculty of Electronics in Nis (Computer and Microelectronics department), and everyone was very proud!!!
