Aquarius

 

General Information

Mattel Electronics attempt at a Personal Computer.

Notes:

Sadly this machine got off to an awful start. It has no graphics generator, so the designers created common images, men running, robots, etc as characters so they could create games in text mode.

Dubbed by it's designers, "The System of the Seventies". Click the link below to the Blue Sky Rangers, the developers, to hear the inside story! Quite an unusual machine and such a stupendous flop, that Mattel sold them back to the Manufacturers, Radofin.
