"I also know something about Intecolor 8001 and Compucolor II machines
because I was Director of Software for ISC from 1978-1979. I bought an
ISC 8001 in Jan 77 and worked for them as a consultant in 77 and 78."

The mention of early colour displays reminded me.
I realize that this is a VERY long shot, but I wonder
if anyone knows anything about a (VT100 looking - on
the outside) colour terminal made by ID Systems Corporation
in Hilliard, Ohio called an ID-100V. The shell is
obviously from a VT100, as is the keyboard, but inside
it is about twice as heavy.
I acquired it at least 10 years ago and turned it on to
see if it worked at all. The SET UP key showed an "A/B"
dialogue with some of the characters displayed in colour
which confirmed it was a colour terminal. BUT I never
had the time to check any further.
Does anyone know if any documentation is available?
Sincerely yours,
Jerome Fine
