[net.micro] ADAM reliability info wanted

spoo@utcsrgv.UUCP (Suk Lee) (12/11/83)

I have a liberal-arts friend who is 
interested in buying the ADAM to do
his term papers on, but we haven't been
able to find this beast anywhere in
Toronto.
If anybody has actually bought this 
thing and has any experiences (good
or BAD), please send me mail, and I
will compile the results and post.
Don't bother forwarding old ADAM
net articles:  I've already read them.
Thanks

About the Adam:
Be warned! the editor on it is sssslllllloooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwww.
It's supposed to be as buggy as all get-out, too.  (i didn't find
any bugs myself, but didn't have much chance at it.)

According to this morning's Oakland Tribune, JC Penney's has ceased
selling the Adam and sent all their stock back to Coleco, since the
Adam does not measure up to Penney's quality standard.
