Subject: Re: Coleco's Adam

I havehad an Adam for several days and am quite please with it thus far.
The keyboard is real, the word processor (in rom) is adeequate (not
Wordstar, but then look at the price), and the printer actually prints!
It is a daisywheel (96 char diablo plastic I think and Hytype-I ribbons?)
and is SLOW and NOISY, supposedly will super and subscript utilizing
half linefeeds (have not tried yet).
Lots of future expansion planned, like RS232, centronics port, CP/M (IOS?)
compatibility, modem, 64K extra memory, etc. I hope it all comes to
fruition. Right now there is NO technical info and no way to get into
the operating system (assuming there is one or at least a rom monitor).
Have I covered all questions?
