I found a Zenith Z170 Lunch Box PC at a local Thrift

Could'nt find anything out about it, until I saw an Osborne Encore, its
Identical except the Osborne is Gray, and the Zenith is a natural
white.. I know that Adam Osborne's company went belly-up around this
time 1984, is it possible that he sold the machine rights to Zenith ?
No. That lunchbox was made by Vadem and OEM'd by Morrow (the Pivot),
Zenith (Z170/Z171), Osborne (O3), and maybe others.
I think the Vixen (O4) was Osborne's last machine.
