Russ, the Vector 3 was manufactured in Santa Barbara, California. Vector
Graphics is an interesting company, in that it was started by two
housewives in the late 70s. One of the ladies was Lore Harp. I forget
the name of the other.
I have two Vector 1's. There was also, of course, a Vector 2.

Hi Russ,
FWIW I went back to the place where I found the original Vector disk and
searched throught their pile of disks and came up with about 15 more hard
sectored disks. At least two of them are originals.
