Does anybody own a Canon CX-1 ?

[mister-freeze]

Hi,
Recently i have caught a Canon CX-1 :D .
It is working properly but unfortunately i have only a disk with Software for a Dentist.
I wonder if there are other other owners of a CX-1.
A clean MCX-disk or more would be awesome.
The disks are easy to read with teledisk.

I have an opportunity to acquire one of these but alas it too has no software, did your searching ever turn up any software for the CX-1?

Cheers, Martin...

No. But i can help with a german Dentist Software . The Disk boots up in "Dentist-Mode" but can be stopped into the standard functions of the OS.

I’ve been looking for a Balloonjet printer for some time to match up to a vintage computer portrait machine

I’ve often wondered if this was one of the first canon printers

Aloha !

As I am catalogging my collection of computers, consoles, software, pereipherals etc, I came across a Canon CX-1 !
It still works, although it could use a bit of work. But as so many of you, I have no floppies to boot from.
I don't even know what to do at the prompt when it is turned on...


Could anybody help me with this ???


Cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeers
