Bit more info..

apparently the actual unit was made by a company called de Grafe (zero 
info via google so far) in the mid-80's, and B&H just acted as agents to 
sell it.

Sounds like it has a display, keyboard and tablet, and outputs data to 
video tape. No mention of a CPU box, so I'm assuming that's buried in 
the display unit at the moment - be interesting to see what it is.

That's all I know so far, but I'm curious... :)

cheers
