Does anyone happen to know what is up with the Zorba timeline? I am working what I thought were the only three Zorba models (Telcon, Modcomp, Gemini), but I found something called a "Nomis 9", and other models? I feel like this is more complicated than it needs to be, haha!

I was able to get in contact with the EVP of Seequa, and a care package showed up at my door. Probably a days worth of scanning in here.
Friday at 8PM EST we will be going through all of these and updating history in real time over at twitch.tv/mcjonestech , I hope you can join!

One of the cool things I saw at #VCFMW was the Seequa Chameleon at an exhbit by @mcjonestech.com
This was a series of PCs that could switch between a Z80 and an 8088 CPU.
Conspicuously lacking ISA ports - there's a CGA integrated onto the board (note the MC6845).

I stepped away from my booth for ~5 minutes or so Saturday, and when I came back Natalie said someone asked if she was the Macintosh Librarian (surrounded by CP/M and DOS machines, lol). I am so glad I found the live stream where this happened, she said to me "I wish I was that cool" #vcfmw
