Challenger 2P

I don't have much, but I can give some of what I know. Ohio Scientific made, or so I gather, four 8 bit home computers - the C1P, C2P, C4P and C8P. Most of my info seems to be on the C8P, which was regarded as The Home Computer of the Future largely due to its ability to control your security system, electrical appliances (like lights), smoke alarms and so on, as well as being able to dial up the police when needed. The C2P, according to the little I have here, was a CIP with more ports, as the IP had but one. Thus the info I have on specs is mostly for the 1P, not the 2P, so I will give that in case it helps. Anyway, the IP is said to have been the first fully packaged home computer that you could just plug in and use. It came with either the MOS 6502 or Motorola 6800 cpu as standard (depending on your requirements) and had a CPU expansion board, allowing the addition of a Z80 or one of several other popular CPU's. It had a standard 53 key keyboard, upper and lower case letters, and 64 char by 24 line mono video. 4k or 12K RAM was standard, with8k BASIC in ROM. Sorry that I don't have more, but my interest tends to lie in the history, rather than the specs. Just for fun, it is worth noting that Ohio Scientific is noted for being the first PC Company to have a woman (Charity Engel Cheiky, I think) as President. Adam.
