The Exorset was designed by Motorola firstly to be a development kit for the MC6809 and Motorola systems.

It has a built-in green 9'' monochrom screen and two 5''1/4 floppy-drives.\
It runs under XDOS (a compatible MDOS operating system).

It is sold with a compiled Basic (BASICM), a text editor and an assembler.
