Is that an Exidy Sorcerer or are you just pleased to see me?

It's an Exidy Sorcerer. I used to sell them at the computer store I worked at circa 1980. Yes, I'm old.

I have fond memories of playing Voodoo Castle on my family's Exidy Sorcerer as a child.

It is, of course, a science fiction photograph. The caption probably read "In the 21st Century, this will be retro and will get you boys/girls"

Just think, we'll probably see pictures in 30 years time of a girl with her ipod and a boy with his laptop and go "Awww". Of course, by then the kids in this pic will be so retro that they'll be treated as gods by the kids in their flying cars.

Ha! My dad bought one of those. I wasn't even 10 yet, but we did load some fun games off the cassettes. I liked Pie Lob.
