Had one of those. Only problem was that a hard drive was only 5 MB and cost
a fortune.

Also had a home built Radio Shack Color Computer - wire wrapped board. The
complete schematic was in the Motorola manual for the 6809 CPU. Stole the
prom code from another machine.

DEC Rainbow running CPM. That was a great machine at the time.
