I have two counterpoint unix boxen. I've had these things for years but
have never got around to fixing them up. They both have the IO
subsystem, but they are also both missing many parts. I was wondering
if anyone has experience with these things and mebbe some
documentation. I _do_ have an original 60M QIC of counterpoint unix
that I could dupe if anyone is interested (although I haven't checked
its reliability recently)
Cheers,
Dan
sorry about that rus is the game still, avail.

Well kids and kiddies I got it functioning. The int. fdd wasn't
positioning the heads close enough to the disk to read them.
Fired up the various OS -- TRSdos 2.0 A , TRSdos 4.2 , CP/M
2.25 and the apps. Scripsit, Profile+, Visicalc, several terminal
programs and some CP/M apps. including MBasic and the C asm.
Wheeee !! What fun !! BTW, it says has 64k . Don't know
about that upgrade tho. Next step is to check out these HDD s.
Thanks to all who contributed.

MSX was a "standard" that allowed machines to share mostly BASIC source
code, it was popular in Europe for about 3 tears then died. I don't know the
involvement of MS in that atempted "standard" but since it was crappy from
the start I would believe they originated it ;). I think it was followed by
MSX2, it was enhanced to keep up with the increase in computing power.

Found this post in misc.forsale.computers.other.systems. Thought I'd
copy it here in case anyone was interested and hadn't seen it. I know
nothing about the person or the systems.

I've had an Acer. It was nice, except very hard to open. It always
jammed.

Come ON, stop making fun of Russian money! Just because it's
