This one is a no brainer. I scrapped a Compucolor 8001 once. It was a STD Bus
8080 Computer board set mounted in a compucolor comercial color terminal. This
terminal was a large metal box with a 19 inch monitor inside. It weighed 70 or
80 pounds. No one would have wanted it in their house. It was ugly, huge, very
unwieldy and heavy. You could attach a 8" hard drive, 8" or 5 " floppys
and
any other interface availiable on STD bus that would fit in a near full 6 slot
backplane. No comparison to an Apple II, which many people wanted in their
homes.
