I may be throwing my $ away, but its illuminating to be the first on the block... The system includes the game unit at the base orice; a lower cost version is supposed to adapt to the existing game, but I do not know if it will immediately be available. The operating system is supposedly purchased from Infosoft (remember IOS?) IOS was one of the several CP/M act-alikes floating around in the 1.4 days; I do hope the Coleco has 2.2 compatibility. More if and when I get my hands on the unit.
