Vintage 1983 MATTEL AQUARIUS Home Computer & Peripherals | AMAZING CONDITION!

The Aquarius is a home computer designed by Radofin and released by Mattel Electronics in 1983. Based on the Zilog Z80 microprocessor, the system has a rubber chiclet keyboard, 4 kB of RAM, and a subset of Microsoft BASIC in ROM. It connects to a television set for audiovisual output, and uses a cassette tape recorder for secondary data storage. A limited number of peripherals, such as a 40-column thermal printer, a 4-color printer/plotter, and a 300 baud modem, were released. The Aquarius was discontinued in October 1983, only a few months after it was launched. #retrogames #mattel #genxgrownup SHOP http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod SUPPORT US   / genxgrownup   WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord   / genxgrownup   http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com   / genxgrownup     / genxgrownup   http://GenXGrownUp.com SPONSORS King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com CHAPTERS 00:00 Mattel Aquarius? 00:35 Cool Daughter 02:28 All the Stuff 03:22 Aquarius PC 06:13 Mini Expander Kit 07:33 Memory Expansion 08:02 Nightstalker 09:39 Assembly 11:43 Power On 12:05 BASIC Programming 13:02 Nightstalker
