Mall directory computers

Just spotted this Brad clearing up email after a 4 week break. I can't answer your question but it reminded me of something that other list users may be able to help with or it might just be of interest. Quite some time ago a friend of mine bought a travel agent in a shopping mall, did a refit of the shop and then later went bust. Fortunately before the refit and going bust he gave me his old shop display which was run on a modified Commodore. I haven't opened it up or powered it up but if anyone knows what this is I'd be grateful. I've posted some photos: http://koken.advancedimaging.com.au/index.php?/albums/shop-mall-commod ore-64/ Kevin Parker -----Original Message----- From: cctalk [mailto:cctalk-bounces at classiccmp.org <javascript:;>] On Behalf Of Brad H Sent: Thursday, 14 July 2016 12:25 To: 'General Discussion: On-Topic and Off-Topic Posts' < cctalk at classiccmp.org <javascript:;>> Subject: Mall directory computers Been wondering about this for a while. Just one of those odd childhood memories. When I was a kid growing up in Oakville, Ontario, I remember Oakville Mall getting one of those very early mall directory computers. This would have been like, 1982-84, somewhere thereabouts. From what I remember, they had kind of CGA-sh graphics and a chiclet 'keyboard' you used to browse the directory. I'm wondering, were they just PCs, most likely? Or some kind of custom job?
