I'm not sure if it's the same thing - but the "Adam" was the first attempt at a "full" home computer system. The Adam (from Coleco, I'm almost positive) came with the computer, keyboard, printer, tape (or maybe disk?) drive, etc and plugged into the TV. It was out around the same time as the Apple Lisa and Commodore 64/Vic 20 - all of which crushed the life out of my poor little TI 99/4A. ;^) Jim Davis ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=5 This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.
