Does anybody know anything about this thing? The
local thrift shop
has one that they claim works (but they don't know how to work it), with
everything but an AC power supply. It comes with a very broken box, or
pieces of it, instruction manual and a Basic tutorial. The sticker on
the back says 1985. The console itself is cosmetically perfect.
Is this a little LCD computer? If so, basically, that's all there is to it.
I liken it to being an oversized Tandy Pocket Computer in approximate
power and programmability.
Yep, that's basically it. It has BASIC built in and I believe it has a
video out so you can hook it to a TV instead of having to rely on the
little one-line, 40-col. LCD display.
The one I had had neither, something like 22-columns and no video out. I don't
know where it went (it basically decided to go to the great inventory dump
in the sky one day, and I can't seem to find where I put the 'corpse'). It
could have been a different model.
