anybody made it, especially at that time (from what I remember it was late to market).
Surely it would have cost as much or more than an Apple II clone, and knowing how
incompatible some Apple II clones were, how did this machine go running from a C64.
Actually after having a second look I am totally intrigued about the design, did it have
it's own 6502?
You'll have to do your own research on that (my guess though is definitely. The
Commie besides has a 6510). I know (or remember) nothing specific, just that it was
advertised forever it seemed in Compute and whatnot.
