NorthStar Dimension

Remember a while back I mumbled something about finding some documentation for a NorthStar Dimension computer which I suspected was PC compatible? Well, I found a short review of it in the 1985-86 Edition of _The Peter McWilliams Personal Computer Buying Guide_. This is the book that has all those keen Victorian-style illustrations throughout the book. They turn up regularly at thrift stores and the like. The NorthStar Dimension is reviewed on page 78. 8088, 256K, MS-DOS, multi-user system. The system was modular. You would buy a CPU, and could hook up to 12 terminals(dubbed "work stations") to a single CPU. The "work stations" could apparently run MS-DOS apps.
