I owned a clone of this made by Nixdorf Computer in Germany. Gave it to a friend to add it to his collection.

I bought one for about $1,800 in 1985. It had 256k ram. It came with PFS Write, File, Report, and some spreadsheet. I later got Multiplan and the fabulous Framework by Ashton-Tate. It was a very good machine for what it was. I did early BBSing with it, and carried it back and forth from my office from time to time. I later got a Panasonic printer which was really cool. Then I got a used 286, but in 1996 I got a Mac and I am on my 4th mac now.

This was my first computer and cost me $2500 - lot of money in those days. I was in Word Processing on IBM Mag Cards and System 6 and 5520. When Personal PC's came out, I was something to learn on, so I bought this one, lasted couple years and then got the Leading Edge. Think I got an IBM PS2 after that. Yeah the ole days! Was exciting times as technology was changing rapidly!

I Donated it to Laclede Computer Trading Co. in St.Louis , it's in the Guy's Window . i played some old Games on it and used the printer , the reason i donated it was it is Very Heavy . and although i miss having it . it's in a Better place , if the guy stays in biasness another 20 years and he is 50 is i think he will it'll wind up in a museum .

This is an illegal computer to have in the United States. Masushita or Panasonic stole the Bios from IBM at a Comdex show and was fined 6 million dollars for the crime and forbidden to market it in the USA. I was the agent that caught them.

Computers I have loved. BBC Models A B C Archimedes,Einstein,several others I can hardly remember,purchased for a song in Car Boot sales in The UK between 1982 1990,each led me on a delightfull journey of discovery,none of them compare in efficiency to this computer,but boy,they were such FUN as captain Kirk said. There was a group called Ian Drury and the Blockheads,in the UK in the 70s,and he wrote a song that I often think of when enjoying these computers it was called there aint half some clever bastards around, .More strenghth to you arm,regards Sid

I have one of these which I am sure is functional. I do not have any of the disks which it did have with it. It needed a boot disk along with a program disk when it was used. Can anyone help me with a copy of the original boot disk? thanks, Pam

I have one of these enormous paperweights. It was a sturdy, and ridiculously heavy unit that had crappy printout quality, and a monochrome screen. Almost completely worthless by today's standards Good for nothing other than text, and possibly it's intrinsic value as a vintage item.

What is the key combination to turn off the on board printer, so you can use a external printer?

The keyboard circuitry is carbon based. If the circuit is broken you can use a pencil to write-over the break to repair it.
