Saw Ad for "Wierd Science" Computer

Other people covered all of the technical details I know. I kind of like the machine. (I haven't used one, just seen information on the Web and the manual on my trip to Bletchley Park.) It's not extraordinary (even for its time), but it is very well thought out and the parts (software and hardware) fit together very nicely. There's lots of nice stuff in ROM (including a debugger). I think the ROM has its own RAM space. (This is pretty important for a debuger of any real power, I would say.) The company tried to keep the total configurations reasonable, though they didn't completely succeed (they offered a number of "combination" packages). I don't know of any emulators, except one for the Mac that's not released yet. See http://www.emulation.net/ for info on the emulator and lots of cool others (for the Mac only). See http://www.btinternet.com/~jim.mtxinfo/mtxsite/index.htm for some pictures of the machine, some scanned ads, and information about the (small number of) games that were sold. -- Derek
