    @bobotech - They were pretty cool, and are pretty nice. It is very powerful for back then. And even though not much software was released, I think you can make your own software with Basic and some blank data tapes? (Does anyone know for sure?) About 4,000 were sold in a test market in California before it was completely scrapped and they were all recalled. Most were returned, but some were kept, and the people had to sign a waiver saying that Mattel Electronics wasn't responcible for any damage or anything and that no more software or hardware for it would be released. Very few remain. And usually when one pops up somewhere, it sells for thousands of dollars because they're so rare. One of my big goals in life is to obtain one in full working condition with plenty of software. It would also be cool to get the printer, but only one has been found, and it had belonged to Papa Intellivision before he sadly passed away and one of his daughters inherited it and a bunch of other cool Intellivision stuff (which did include a Keyboard Component). The Keyboard Component is really cool, and I hope to get it someday. It would go along great with my Intellivision that I got sealed last Christmas. :)
