Subject: Adam
The Coleco Adam is still a twinkle in our collective eye; I have no knowledge
of anyone actually obtaining one yet, though my local dealer claims to have
one on the way for me. I may be throwing my $ away, but its illuminating
to be the first on the block...
The system includes the game unit at the base orice; a lower cost version
is supposed to adapt to the existing game, but I do not know if it will
immediately be available.
The operating system is supposedly purchased from Infosoft (remember IOS?)
IOS was one of the several CP/M act-alikes floating around in the 1.4 days;
I do hope the Coleco has 2.2 compatibility.
More if and when I get my hands on the unit.
