Nah, Nibby is a Time Lord, this is merely an earlier Nibby.

Not a bad set up for 78. Still, that computer cost much more than many cars available then.

At first I thought it was expensive, but read more and realized that’s alot a kit. Monitor, printer, harddrive. I think the TI-99/4a was $2-3K and it had none of these.

Exactly what I was getting at. Besides I don't think families were the target audience for this machine at all.

My uncle sold computers in the early 80s. He told me they once sold a 10 megabyte hard drive to a business, and thought the owner was crazy because there was no way he’d ever fill that up.
