There used to be t-shirts and polos

The black polo shirts with the white and orange ComputerBase logo were preceded 20 years ago by the first t-shirts, optionally with “ComputerBase”, “ForumBase” (at that time the Forum still had its own name) and the Seti@Home imprint. Black polo shirts with more subtle embroidery followed 13 years ago. After that, the topic went quiet.
