ADAM Memory Console

The body of the ADAM: the console that holds the processor, the 64K of memory, the ROM carrying SmartWRITER, the digital data pack drive and the expansion slots, with the keyboard, drives and printer hanging off it.

What plugs into it

• The keyboard and any disk or tape drives, over ADAMnet.
• The printer, which supplies the power for everything - the console has no supply of its own.
• Expansion cards in the slots beneath the access door, the 64K memory expander among them.

On a standalone ADAM this console is the machine. Bought as Expansion Module #3 instead, a ColecoVision takes its place as the base the rest of the system is built on.
