MASSCOMP

The Massachusetts Computer Corporation was a computer manufacturer based in Westford, Massachusetts. Originally conceived by C.160Forbes Dewey of MIT and inventor Chester Schuler, it was founded formally in 1981. Its target market was realtime computing, with a focus on highspeed data acquisition. Its major innovation was that it created the first widely available computer product which was able to sample analog signals at one million samples per second and store the resulting data to disk continuously. Given the technology available at the timeMotorola 68000 series CPUs of only a few megahertz in speed and slow disk drivesthis product represented quite a technological achievement.
