The company was TSC (Time Share Corporation).  It was part of the Houghton
Mifflin group.  I worked for TSC in Montreal in 1977/78.  The headquarters
were in White River Junction, NH (but I could be mistaken, it was a long,
long time ago and I only visited there once, I think.)

couple of them during high school from 76-80. I don't think it's going
to be easy to find any docs for them, but the internet will surprise
you. I believe that it used the 21mx cpu.

There was a variant of the 2000 from a company called Basic Timeshare
Inc. The OS was very close to that of the 2000, the only thing that
stands out in my mind is that the admin accounts started with an [log in to unmask] It
seems like I also lost a lot of hard drives.... 26mb winchesters, I
