INTERSYSTEMS
- History
Ithaca Intersystems was originally called Ithaca Audio. They
started making S-100 boards a little later than a few others, but soon made a name
for themselves in terms of clean design and board capabilities. They were located
in Ithaca, New York and in the early years drew on engineering talent from Cornell
University where the founders worked in a small rented space in the Collegtown neighborhood
adjacent to the university campus. They went on to produce an S-100 bus, Z80-based
computer the called the Ithaca Intersystems DPS-1. It was well accepted and
so the company moved to larger spaces outside of town, and designed and produced
a larger system, the Zilog Z8002-based DPS-8000. This used the
Coherent Unix operating system. Unfortunately the company
was not successful
in the 1980s, not being part of the domination IBM PC and PC clones revolution.
