From Chris Wheeler, Managing director, Cambridge Computer Ltd
Bridge House, 10 Bridge Street, Cambridge CB2 1UE
Computergram (21 November) continues the speculation on Cambridge
Computer’s product development plans. Whilst the speculation may be
enjoyable, I am concerned that no one should be misled. Our
position, as previously stated, is that CCL anticipates launching a
new PC-compatible portable computer later in 1990. Until such time
as we have completed the development phase, and have announced the
specification, pricing and availability, speculation in any of
these areas remains just that. You can however, be assured that
Cambridge will continue to bring outstanding products to the market
which will set new standards for performance and value for
money.
