Yup, 8-track tapes.  Take a look at 
http://www.old-computers.com/museum/computer.asp?c=560.  I never had 
that version, mine had the 5.25" floppy, which stored a whopping 51.2K, 
if memory serves.

Another fun quirk about the CCII was the fact that the circuit boards 
were mounted into an unshielded plastic TV case, making it a very 
effective public nuisance.  My parents always knew when I was using the 
thing because our living room TV's picture would get all sorts of 
interference on it when the CCII was powered on!  (They were annoyed a LOT)
