GRiD Compass 1101 now online!

COWABUNGA!! My beautiful new GRiD Compass is now online! The keyboard seems to need a little bit of cleaning or working-in, sometimes keypresses don't register. This thing automatically loads up a VT100 emulator when I turn it on. Does anyone know anything about GRiD-OS? I think it was version 3.something. I'll verify that later. I'm just SOOO happy that the Compass works! I'v been wanting to at least _see_ one in operation since I first read the review in... I'm not sure... January 1984 Creative Computing? (No, I think that was the Gavilan.) I'm going to have to poke around some more. I just wanted to dial in with the thing and make this announcement. :) (It's hard to find a provider that will accept a 1200bps conection these days, huh?) So... GPIB is the same as IEEE-488? Anyone got an adapter cable for GRiD-to-CBM? :) YES!! Plasma display AND bubble memory in ONE machine! -- Doug Spence ds_spenc(a)alcor.concordia.ca http://alcor.concordia.ca/~ds_spenc/
