Notes

Orphanware's Parallel Interface Adapter — a parallel (Centronics) printer card for the ADAM that also supplies the memory-expander "addressor" signal. It uses Orphanware's Fastpatch software to patch the ADAM's EOS operating system so that standard parallel printers work in place of the Coleco daisy-wheel printer. Installs in expansion slot #2.
