OP getting a lot of free bumps:lol2:

I still have 3 of the original Lasermedia "Imagen" computers from the stone age of lasers.
They have slots for 512k "fat cards" with 8 EPROMS each card 8 cards total.
It has a "Battery RAM" card, a Dual U-ART card to feed the green TERMINAL monitor. (Esprit or Esprit2, I need one)
Got a TTL card, proprietary time code card ripping off SMPTE but not compatible. (a propeller head did write a converter)
The XYZ axis scanner driver cards never failed, unlike the closed-loop feedback galvanometers aka scanners.
And the star of the show..... the processor card featuring the mighty Z-80 processor.
Anyone fluent in FORTH? :eek2: :lol2:
 
Thanks for bringing back some great memories! I had the 20 MG JD version and wondered if we would ever need all that storage capacity.... lol
