I have the opportunity to travel to Gent, Belgium, in about a month,
and with all the recent talk of British computers, I wanted to ask the
list if anyone knows if there were ever any Belgian-made computers.
I'm mostly interested in 1980s micros, but any sort of machines would
be germane.

Wasn't there an 8080 or Z80 machine called the DAI that was Belgian?
I seem to recall wanting one when I saw the specs, but I can't
quite remember why -- maybe it had the TI sprite graphics chip?

AGFA made some computer equipment for its digital printing and PrePress
equipment. UNIX derived language running on 2 or 3 paralleled 68040
or powerPC boards. These were fitted into heavy metal cases with grey
fronts. No Monitor or keyboard, you hooked up a terminal to a serial
port
AGFA are based outside of Antwerp
