That's
funny...a computer facelift.
Actually, a number of companies offered the same type of thing for the
ZX-81/Timex-Sinclair 1000. It was to give the computer a real keyboard

One of the prettiest machines I ever saw was a TRS-80 Color Computer
built into a PC clone portable case, with color tube (not yet common in
PC luggables at the time) along with the multi-pak interface, floppy
controller, etc. It's something I've considered doing myself, but other
priorities keep rearing ugly heads.

New subject: Interfacing Hard Sector Disk Drive
In the comp.os.cpm newsgroup, one of the posts referred to wanting to
know the geneology of MDOS (Micropolis Dos.) That led to the fact the
disks were 16 hard sector disks ... which led to the interfacing for the
Micropolis 100 TPI disks drives. Is the controller specific to the
controller or can the drive be interfaced to any controller? I suspect
the controller and drive are a pair but don't know for sure.
