As far as I know, the GRiD Compass went up on the first Shuttle flight.
Or at least, I'm certain it went up before an Attache did, since the
Attache wasn't produced until well after the GRiD was around.
One site puts the Attache at 1984, which sounds appropriate.
Probably earlier than that as their BIOS & BOOT software was
Copyright 1981.
