About: MUPID

An Entity of Type: device, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The MUPID (short for "Mehrzweck Universell Programmierbarer Intelligenter Decoder" in German) was an early home computer like system (1981-1983) designed and invented by Hermann Maurer at TU Graz to be used as a Bildschirmtext terminal, but it was also capable of being used as a stand-alone computer. It had a Zilog Z80 microprocessor and came with BASIC as operating system, 128 KB of RAM, a V.24 1200/75 baud modem, audio input/output for tape recorder, a parallel printer interface and an optional external floppy drive unit. At the time it excelled in having advanced color graphic capabilities.

dbo:abstract
  • Der MUPID war ein in Österreich durch den Grazer Universitätsprofessor Hermann Maurer und sein Team entwickeltes und hergestelltes Gerät, mit dem es erstmals möglich war, normale Fernsehgeräte an das österreichische, das deutsche oder das schweizerische BTX-Netz anzuschließen. Das Gerät wies einige Merkmale eines Heimcomputers auf, in der Standardausführung fehlten aber nicht flüchtige Speichermöglichkeiten (z. B. Festplatte, Diskettenlaufwerk). In gewisser Weise nahmen MUPID und BTX in den 1980ern einige Funktionen des Internets vorweg. (de)

At the time it excelled in having advanced color graphic capabilities. There were several model variations: MUPID C2D (square case with separate keyboard); MUPID C2D2 (compact case labelled "Komfort MUPID") and MUPID C2A2 (Austrian "Konfort MUPID"). The Mupid was also sold under other brands, as the Grundig PTC 100 (C2D2 variation in a different color) and the Siemens T3110 (C2D variation). It was followed in 1983 by the MUPID II. This version supported the CEPT Prestel standard, had a better keyboard, a 320 × 240 graphics mode, four voice sound, two DIN6 joystick connectors, a DIN8 tape interface, a DB25 modem, a DE9 serial connector and a DIN8 external disk drive connector. A card for older IBM PC compatibles with an ISA slot was developed that gave a PC the same graphics capabilities as a MUPID. * MUPID C2D * MUPID C2D keyboard * MUPID C2D with keyboard * Siemens T3110 * Siemens T3110 keyboard * Siemens T3110 with keyboard (en)
