Dator Computer. Housing in beige sheet metal. Front of beige plastic. Black floppy disk station. To the left text "Ericsson" and to the right switch and text "PC". On the back etiquette with "Ericsson System Unit Type 1031-002". Detachable, gray power cable. Three boxes of paper and plastic with GW Basic Manual and Guide, Dos Manual and Guide, as well as user manual and user guidance. Two guides for Ericsson's word processing program ergo-word. The donor worked as a library in Bräkne-Hoby and, among other things, took care of book lending at Ericsson's factory there. He then bought the computer with staff discount in connection with any sale (this computer, however, not manufactured there). Purchased in 1986. It has 10 MB of hard drive and cost SEK 23800. Was used for about 7 years and worked great. Ericsson's own word processing program "Ergo words" was used for the computer. Examples of things written on it are an advent calendar to Sweden's Radio, called "The ship Beatrice" (1989) and a book on Jesus' life that later received the August Prize, "Master and the Four Profiters" (1994). MAKED A FAILT TRY to enter the US market. IBM was too established there. The trials at home also failed, as there were cheaper alternatives. In 1988, the computer division was sold to Nokia, but also the wounded shortly thereafter computer production. Gift 2016-12-07 by authors Ulf Nilsson, Stockholm.
