Possible origin of the cover "Sound Games Orchestra - Games Power"

I was looking for information about this cover, trying to decipher what the model of this cute computer is.

To my surprise, I came across an image that appears to be the original photo that was later cropped to add to the library album cover. According to my theory.

Does anyone know what model of computer it is? As far as I know it's a Victor.

Dan, it's a Victor 9000 Sirius 1 from 1982. Details here: http://www.oldcomputers.net/victor9000.html. Have a look at the spec and compare it with today's home computers. Then consider that in its day it cost almost US$5,000. Ha, those were the days, eh!!

A little expensive, right?

But, apart from that, near where I live there is an exhibition of video game machines from the era. It is surprising, because there are not only machines, but also computers from IBM, Victor and Apple, among the first personal computers that went on sale.

As soon as you enter, just to the left there is a large table where there are a few computers that you can sit at and try them out.

I tried an Apple Macintosh 128K, it was a pleasant experience hahahaha
