Anyone have a Compucolor Computer?
Just curious. It's supposedly the first color computer. Thanks!

I remember seeing one a long time ago at a VCF, but the only person I am pretty sure who has or at least had one is Eric Klein. Cory of the LSSM upstairs display may have one in New Kensington.

LSSM has an Intecolor model 8001, but it is not currently on exhibit. It is, more or less, the predecessor of the Compucolor 8001. Without the upgrade kit to turn it into a Compucolor 8001, it is a graphics terminal. The successor is the Intecolor 3600; LSSM does have one of those on exhibit, on the first floor, but it has not yet been restored. It is a recent arrival. I don't know if Corey has one of these personally, but if he does, it's not at LSSM. -Dave On 12/11/23 16:08, Bill Degnan via vcf-midatlantic wrote:

I gave one to Ian P a while back, but it’s a project machine. On Mon, Dec 11, 2023 at 3:51 PM Jeffrey Brace via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:

That would be a project. On Mon, Dec 11, 2023 at 4:15 PM Dean Notarnicola via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:
