Fred’s 1983 Dynalogic Hyperion Computer

Our friend Fred in Rockcliffe Park, Ontario found a terrific transportable computer by Ottawa-based Dynalogic–it’s the Hyperion and offers some cool features for a 1983 computer, including dual 360k 5 1/4″ disk drives, built-in amber CRT and a video out jack for displaying CGA graphics! The keyboard slides underneath the CPU and locks into place. This machine was driven the DOS 2.11 operating system. Fred also notes that the system appears to support some sort of networking capability, as there’s an unusual network interface in the back. One of Dynalogic’s largest customers was the Canadian Government. Can you imagine they paid over $4000 for these machines? This one was grabbed for $5.00–just a wee bit less than the original price.
