Get it out of your system: MicroDaSys makes it easy

On the face of it, this is yet another Motorola 6800-based system with an S-100 bus, however it's perhaps the micro which more than any other most closely resembles an actual typewriter. 

It's shown above with a couple of plug-in cartridges - BASIC, and the legendary Spacewar, one of the first ever computer games when it was created in 1962 on a DEC PDP-1.

Like its contemporary Polymorphic, MicroDaSys, or sometimes Microdasys, was offering a numbered range of "Systems", starting with the System 1. 

This was built around the MD-690A computer board - which was upgradable to Motorola's latest 6809 CPU - and came with the console, a keyboard, power supply and graphics card for $549 in kit form, or about [[400|1978]] in [[now]].

The System 2 came with a 32K RAM card, although it only had 8K included, and sold for $699 - [[470|1978]] in [[now]].
