Shelton Sig/Net: 211 Power!

With a design that would not have looked out of place on Gerry Anderson's "Space: 1999", the Shelton sig/net 211 - designed by Chris Shelton, who had <a href="pcw_1980-01_045">once worked for Nascom</a> - was one of a range of modular microcomputers with a specific emphasis on networking.

The 211 model included Rodime mini-Winchester hard drives, with capacities from 3.3MB up to 13.3MB. The top-of-the-range two-user system, which came with 192K RAM (64K for the multi-user operating/networking system and 2 x 64K for each user, running CP/M), 10MB hard disk storage, and the networking operatings system MCNOS, retailed for £4,999 - about [[5000|1982]] in [[now]]
