This large, extremely heavy (95 lbs) all-in-one desktop computer system, was designed to be taken out of the carton, set up, checked out and operated by first-time users.
The Datamaster combined word processing and data processing in a single machine to give small businesses the big benefits of information processing.
The same engineers who design the Datamaster went on to help designed the IBM PC, the computer system which started the PC revolution which exists today.
The power supply and motherboard both pull-out from the back of the system for easy access. This can be done whether or not the system cover has been removed.
The 8-inch floppy drives are very large, with several heavy-duty components. These large and heavy drives are rather uncommon for 1981 - most other computer systems had switched to 5 1/4-inch drives by this time.
