Description
Firmware for a household assistant sold for home use from 2005, read from a unit retired by its owners.
Provenance
Deposited by East Redville Central Library. The window labels had peeled and the EPROMs had been exposed to light, so each was read many times. Independent reads agree bit for bit.
