Notes

A pre-production ADAM memory console fitted with wafer drives in place of the digital data pack drives the shipped machine carried - a development unit from before Coleco settled the ADAM's storage, not something sold.

LITTLE IS RECORDED about this machine outside collections. What the wafer drives were, how far the arrangement got and how many consoles were built this way want confirming from the unit itself and from Coleco engineering material; the general histories describe only the production system.
