Point 7 Server
Development
As multi-user computing was becoming more important, in 1984, ACT introduced an upgraded and re-badged version of their PC Xi computer to act as a 'server' computer that could offer a set of shared resources (printers, storage, modem, etc) to a connected computer up to 50 feet away.
Running Concurrent DOS, the Point 7 system could support up to six 'client' computers connected to it via RS232 cable to an external 'Cluster Controller'. The seventh user would used the screen and keyboard of the Point 7 machine itself.
The Point 7 system could support any Apricot product and any IBM-compatible PC.
