[net.micro] Commodores' new printer?...

LAVITSKY@RU-BLUE.ARPA (12/18/83)

Hi,

 Last week I got a gander  at Commodores' new printer for the  C64/VIC
computers. I didn't get a chance to see it work, and the salesman  had
no documentation  I could  look at.  I believe  the model  number  was
something like '810..'. I heard a  rumour that the mechanism was  made
by Epson, has anybody heard more about these little beasties?

 I also got a quick look at a PET 64. It seemed to have all the  ports
of a regular  C64. The  two joystick  ports are  on the  front of  the
machine underneath the keyboard. The  right side of the machine  looks
exactly like the back of the regular C64. The unit comes in a standard
PET enclosure with a 12 or 13  in. green monitor (I'm not sure of  the
exact size). Has  anybody heard more  about this little  toy and  what
Commodores' plans are for it?

Eric
