know any more details? Did Bell and Howell ever do any other
computer-based systems?
Hell and Bowel made and sold all kinds of AV equipment. There were
several things that they sold that had computers, besides their
rebadged ][.
Didn't they also run a sort of vocational school, Bell&Howell Institute?
Couild be that some of the rebadged computer stuff comes from their course
materials...
I am starting to wonder if it's a vintage piece of kit at all to be
honest! It seems that the company still do (or did until very recent
times possibly) video projectors and other related gadgets.
It may well be it's not even something that old at all and is some sort
of gadget the owner thought we'd like to assist in public displays or
whatever :-)
(In which case it'd likely still be good to have... I'm just surprised
that google reveals no possible info other than this black Apple II+
from way back, which doesn't appear to have
anything by way of fancy
video ability)
Guess I'll have to sit and await more details from the owner! :)
