Go up one level in this thread


not all Twins were portables of course
shown here are is a Twin from Conic and Westrack
this computer is highly unusual in that  the pieces had long metal connecting
rods,that when inserted in the holes in each square would
create a closed connection with the board and the move would be registered

Victor Korchnoi actually endorsed one of these models and his name was printed
on the face of the computer

 this computer is a rare Triplet in that CXG also released it under its
Schneider label
