I mentioned previously a discussion I had over dinner of some classic 
systems.  One of the systems mentioned was a Sony CP/M machine from the 
very early 80s.  Anyone know anything about this system?

         Hi, Sam:

  In 1983 Sony Video Products Catalog listed a SMC70 microcomputer, and
again in  1986 Japan Video Centre (Toronto) listed a SMC70G "Genlocker"
which was supposed to make a good character generator for video production.
I remember going to see one, but didn't bite because they wanted about six
grand for it, and that is a bit much, even in Canada.

                                                Regards

Sony CP/M machine?
