I remember playing a cricket game on that machine as it used to take floppy 
disks

It was available in the 1980s and 1990s as an A4 size note-taker and 
fantastic box of tricks.  Made in Australia, Eureka has a very quirky voice 
which put a lot of people off, but she was so advanced for her time with lots 
of functions and features.  Someone kindly gave me one recently, and it is 
still possible to carry out a lot of tasks despite her age.

Not everyone's cup of tea but certainly an old friend of mine! (smile.)

Hello,

What is the Eureka?
Sorry for the stupid question, but I've never heard of it.

Hi Carol



No I am not aware of anything strange, but then I haven’t had time for 
too much play! (smile.)  What a sweetie she is!

Hi Jackie,

Well done! Have you found the millennium bug hiding around there yet! 
:-) Anyway I hope you're having fun :-)

I have been given a Eureka by someone who no longer wants it, and am 
delighted to say that George and Kevin serviced it for me.

But does anyone have any of Eureka's old games or utilities that were 
part of its usergroup fan base?  Please feel free to contact me off 
list if you prefer.

Eureka must be one of the only older pieces of kit to still have some 
uses, it's great to see the old girl again!!
