I saw a display copy of the Adam at the Markline store in

Waltham, Mass on Sat 22 Oct.  They had just received their first
customer shipment the day before.  If I ordered one today
they said the wait would be about 4 weeks.  Their price is
$675.

I didn't have much time to play with it.  The word processor
in ROM is pretty simple, slightly slow but servicable.  Keyboard
is nice.  Printer is s l o w (<10 cps) and very noisy.  Didn't
see the cassette drive or game cartridges in action.
