PCW
This is the PCW page. I managed to get hold of my PCW from one of my friend's, very kind parents. They used it for their business but they moved to a pc so it was really just gathering dust!
Anyway, to cut a long story short they offered me it and I took it!! I moved it in and promptly blew up both disk drives. I finally go them repaired last year by replacing the power board and im glad to report its systems go!
Here is a picture of the PCW Printer,
PRINTER
The printer is special on a PCW as all the character processing goes on inside the computer and so the only thing that is sent to the printer is the motor commands etc. This makes it completely useless to another computer....
