Yeah! I still have it in my mother''s basement. It''s a huge thing. As a child, I spend hours typing small basic programs on it. My father bought it after spending some years(months?) with an acorn atom (do NOT bump the table with the tape player over it!!!). Le guepard seemed so modern and fast compared to it.\
|
|
I confirm for the colors : it is beige and brown. I remember the very firm feeling of the keyboard.
|
|
|
|
I think i''m gonna pay a visit to my mother soon !

This is a french professionnal computer which had no success.
|
|
|
|
It was sold with two 5''1/4 floppy-drives (40 tracks, 360k each) but, could be replaced by 80 tracks ones.
|
|
|
|
A Winchester 5''1/4 hard disk (5 or 10 Mb) can be connected with a special interface, as well as two external 8" floppy disk-drives.
|
|
|
|
It also has a built-in battery (1 hour long) and a real-time clock built-in.
|
|
|
|
The Guepard was delivered with a Basic, an Assembler and two operating systems (New DOS 80-2.0 and CP/M+)
