ALL AUSTRALIAN DESIGN, MANUFACTURE AND SUPPORT
“The highest performance computer design ever published”
ETI Magazine December 1986
If you take your computing seriously Applix is for you!
The Applix 1616 microcomputer.
The 1616 gives you the power of the Motorola 68000 processor, supported by a hardware design that lends itself to all purposes — industrial control, educational applications or serious programming.
The 1616 is available fully assembled or in “kit” form; the 1616 can be tailored to suit your level of computing needs. Just build up partly for programmable controllers, or all the way for a powerful, flexible personal computer.
After building your system, you have total control using the powerful ROM Resident Operating System, abundant I/O and unlimited expansion capabilities.
Motorola 68000 (16/32 bit) processor. 512K bytes RAM as standard. 64K ROM expandable. On-board high speed cassette interface. Optional disk/co-processor card. Four 80 pin expansion slots. Dual serial ports. Centronics compatible parallel printer port. General purpose digital to analogue I/O port. Analogue two-button joystick port. Graphics: 320H x 200V 16 colours, 640H x 200V any four of 16 colours. Standard RGBI interface or composite video.

1616/OS offers features such as:
1616/OS is a very powerful and flexible operating system and takes full advantage of the 1616 hardware.
Each 1616 kit is supplied with a copy of SSASM — a 68000 macro assembler. Full documentation and system macro library supplied.
SSFORTH is a complete implementation of the FORTH language. SSFORTH runs under 1616/OS, rather than the normal FORTH screen system. It is fast, has full access to 1616/OS (including EDIT) supports 32 bit integers, float and interrupt driven words. Full source code supplied!
SSBASIC features 32 bit integer numbers, floating point, variables, multi dimensional arrays and character strings. Access to 1616/OS, graphics and assembler from within BASIC.
All Australian. The Hi-Tech “C" Compiler running under 1616/OS comes with macro assembler, linker and librarian.
A cross-compiler running under MS-DOS and producing code for the 68000 is also available.
Truly a computer in its own right, the 1616 Disk Controller Card adds another dimension to the 1616 system. Using an 8MHz Z80H as a co-processor, tasks such as getting data to and from the disk can be off-loaded from the 68000, leaving it to do what it does best!
SCSI hard disk interface using the NCR5380.
Mini kits start at $239, basic kits from $449, keyboard $139, power supplies from $69, disk controller kit from $249.
