bitty box
(Or "calculator") /bit'ee boks/ A computer
sufficiently small, primitive, or incapable as to cause a
hacker acute claustrophobia at the thought of developing
software on or for it. The term is especially used of small,
obsolescent, {single-tasking}-only {personal computers} such
as the {Atari 800}, {Osborne}, {Sinclair}, {VIC-20}, {TRS-80}
or {IBM PC}, but the term is a general pejorative opposite of
"real computer" (see {Get a real computer!}).
See also {mess-dos}, {toaster}, {toy}.
