MINDSET

You can't have mine. MINDSET was about as you recall. It built in 1984 as a super-multimedia 80186-based PC-compatible (well, mostly-compatible, anyway.) For 1984, the graphics were superb and it had (IIRC) a video-in connection so you can use the computer as a character generator/paintbox. I think it was packed with a low-end cousin to the Time Arts Lumena paint program and was THE machine for graphic artists. Remember, this was a year and a half before the Amiga - which, whene IT came out, pretty much took over Mindset's market. The Mindset has a unique and quite beautiful white bi-level case design. So pretty in fact that the Museum of Modern Art put one in their design collection - the first computer placed in their collections. Much of the hardware was proprietary - weird memory modules and it also accepted plug in progrram cartridges. Mindset didn't last too long as a company. They DID build a second model, an AT-based machine in charcoal gray. I've seen it once and never read anything about it I found my original Mindset last year, complete with a couple of expansion RAM modules, the boot disks and the paint cartridge. Like I said, it's gorgeous and you can't have it. Nyah. But - I might make you a deal on the stereo module! --Larry
