| Hi Group, Today I picked up quite a system from a nice guy. It's an Intertec: the front is labeled as "System 10" while on the back I read "Super Disk". It sports two 8" 250Kb drives (indeed it seems to be a one motor-drive mechanics with two independent heads, its a Persci thingy) and it's been "upgraded" by piggy-backing a bunch of 2116s (nice gold-plated good old chips) on the original memory and about 100m of fine wiring!! It's a standalone unit and needs a terminal to operate (it came with a neat Lear Siegler ADM-3A). I am quite happy having recovered a box with around 100 8" floppies and system disks as well as char-based games , Cobol, Supercalc and more. Anyway I am puzzled because I find absolutely no reference for this system when I am looking at Intertec's production, even a rapid look at early BYTES does not returns any reference, not even an advertising: perhaps this computer is known with another name. Anybody would be so kind to shed some light on this? Gabriele B |
