<< Last night I rescued two Ohio Scientific systems:
 
 A challenger C1P and
 
 A Challenger II (which was a MUCH bigger box, and had a matching big,
 heavy dual 8" floppy cabinet).
 
 The haul also included an ADM-3A terminal (always wanted one of
 these), and a dual 5 1/4" floppy cabinet (don't know which system
 this goes to).
 
 I got no documentation, no software or anything
 (these were all picked up from a curb-side garbage pile!!)!
 
 I've always admired the ohio scientific systems...and almost bought a
 C1P back in the late 70's (it was a toss up between a C1P and a
 trs-80).
 
 Any pointers to documentation, software, specifications, etc??

I have 5 C1P models including a plastic case one. I have schematics and shiny
advertisements that must have came with the system. Interesting machines
although I have not tested mine yet. The 4 I got last year have all sorts of
switches and knobs on them. I think they were modded for extra video
capabilities.
