- title: DISK-DRIVE AND JOYSTICK INTERFACE
subtitle: Vaporware !!!
text: |-
This is the only known picture of the vaporware 3.5'' disk-drive and joystick interface for the Alice. They were presented at the Micro-Expo exhibition in Paris in february 1985, along with a modem (not pictured here).
Only the disk-drive and modem are vaporware. The joystick interface was indeed released.

With this add-on, you can use a joystick with the Alice. But you can't use a memory expansion at the same time :-(
Thanks to [www.mapetitecollection.com](http://www.mapetitecollection.com/) for the picture

This is a brazilian clone of the [Tandy MC-10](/museum/tandy-radio-shack-mc-10/) and, thus, of the [Matra-Hachette Alice](/museum/matra-hachette-alice/)...
Little is known about this obscure system. Though the case is different from the MC-10 and Alice, the hardware should be pretty the same...
It is important to note though that this clone computer (like many other Brazilian systems which are direct copies of other well known computers) is not illegal according to brazilian law. Brazil had, for a long time, a policy of protecting its internal computer market. As part of this policy, it was not illegal to copy foreign hardware or software.
