Speaking of reference manuals, does anyone have any information / insights
into a Visual Technologies Commuter? Manf in 1984, it uses two Intel chips
(8086 and 8088) with a plethora of RAM chips not to mention at least four
program subroutines. The manufacturer seems to have disowned this particular
unit since two people in their tech department have not heard of it.
No surprise, staff turns over. Ask anybody at your local Radio Shack
about
any computer with a TRS-80 or even Tandy logo. Hell, it probably
wouldn't
require that big a sample to find two "techies" at Volkswagen who never
heard
of the Beetle, let alone the Dasher.
