I never heard of the COMPIS....I do remember a Swedish computer called
the ABC-80...never actually saw one of those, but someone wrote an
emulator for it...really bad, TRS-80 Model I type graphics but it did
have a decent pinball game that someone wrote in BASIC...
It had high-resoluting
graphics (for its time), but was a quite a bad idea, developed by a company
run by an old pornographer and given the public contract on dubious grounds.
Whoo-hoo. Do tell...
