It has a 25 X 80 LCD screen, along with Unix "artfully compressed" into 256K of ROM. It comes with a 3.5 inch floppy, but no hard disk. Supposedly, there is some neat windowing software. Sounds wierd, but maybe good, although the ideas of Unix being compressed into 256K and having no hard disk scare me.
