Rapax proudly presents: the Rapax64. This new computer system from tomorrow - with the techniques of the day before yesterday. It is running with compressed air, and the compressor is really making a f***ing noise. But the customer takes this for granted, for its frequency of 2.000.000mHz.
This ad shows that today it is not the quality of the product which causes a high number of sells. The marketing strategies are the main point.

COMING SOON!
Rapax64 will conquer the computer branch. Just 23 days till
Christmas! Then the Rapax64 will finally appear on the
"screen of the scene"! But - what is Rapax64?
That is a revolutionary computer system! For years our developers
got no sleep to accelerate their development (ha, ha). The new
extraordinary computer has a unique clock rate of 2.000.000 MHz
(sorry, it's a typing error: the true number is 2.000.000 mHz).
The processor is compressor-driven, and this compressor dins
unbelievably at work. It's cool, man! The computer's heart is a
newly developed dynamic "SchappyLOGIC" incompatibility
processor with "MainlyERROR" floating point unit. The
random access memory is realized by a turbo-xy-table with pencil,
square paper, b&w-camera and rubber. Pencil and rubber have to be
exchanged every month, the paper once a year. Otherwise technical
problems may occur. The hard disk drive will be a phonograph
recorder with silicon (to erase data) which may be obtainable
some day at a price of 500,- US$. Further media (empty LPs) will
be sold at 50,- US$ each. CB-Roms ("Compact Books") are
available from the day of R64's release on that can be read by a
flatbed-scanner-like apparatus (around 500,- US$, CBs around
10,- US$). Thank you GUTENBERG!
Memory extensions will be DIN A1 XY-tables (stackable), but they are
still under development.
Technical data:
Processor: SchappyLOGIC incompatibility processor,
compressor-driven, 2.000.000 mHz
Drive: DIN A6, capacity: 16 sheets of paper,
further media available at stationery
shops (use squared paper)
Random
Access Memory: DIN A4, 16 sheets of paper
( 1 A4 sheet = 2 A4 sides
1 A4 side = 20x30 cm
20x30cm = 40x60 squares
40x60 squares = 2400 bit
2400 bit = 300 byte
so:
1 A4 side = 300 byte
1 A4 sheet = 600 byte
16 A4 sheet = 9600 byte
9600 byte = 9,375 kilobyte)
PRICE: 5000,- US$
