Ah, but when people with Valdocs wanted to change to another
word-processing system, as was likely to happen often in business, they
would contact, Chuck, me, or any of our colleagues in the disk format
conversion field.
The CP/M users might not have as frequent a conversion need, and/or might
be more likely to make use of other options, such as XMODEM.
Accordingly, WE saw Valdocs users more often than the other QX-10 users.

It appears there were 2 keyboards sold for it. One had Valdocs-specific
keys, the other (which seems more common over here, not that the QX10
is a common machine) doesn't and was used for a more standard
CP/M system.
Yes, as well as a fair amount of TP/M source code. It's just that the QX-10s
strong selling point was Valdocs and that's mostly why people bought the
thing.
