  I may be
whacked in the head, but what did the Poly 88 innovate other 
than cuteness? Or maybe that doesn't matter because it is has an s-100 buss?  
  Actually it did provide a turning point in micro processors.
 It was the first S-100 to have only a power and reset button on the front.
 It had a monitor ROM built in that provided a display of memory and
 registers, using the memory mapped video. The ROM also had the
 tape read code built in. They'd have put the tape write code in 
->snip<-

So. What I hear you saying, is that they were the first to copy the 
digital group...! :) 
 Is it S-100? When did they first come out?
