HEY!!
The Tandberg is 100% NORWEGIAN!! :)
Sorry, I had Volvo on the brain. I would have compared it to a
Norwegian-made auto, but I don't know of any offhand. :)
Yeah. To make matters worse, their main OEM dealer
Norsk Data, when
selling the terminals, marked them up at least 20 percent when selling
them. As one customer remarked - it was a very expensive "Norsk Data"
sticker...
Looks very close, except I think the display on mine was on a
moveable arm support.
We also received a tabletop 9-track tape drive at about the same
time. Not an autoloader per se, but reel-to-reel in a vertical
plane. The interface was very simple--I was able to use a single
8255 to talk to the drive (i.e., it wasn't a Pertec interface). But
again, far, far too expensive. :(
Cheers,

Anyone care to fill me in on what the thing
was--and if anyone ever used
them. Tandberg sticks in my mind because the same salesman dropped off a 9
track tape drive for evaluation that was definitely a Tandberg.
From your description I'm going to guess that
you're talking about a
TDV-2200 series, most likely the TDV-2215.
