Editing Compis (section)

== History ==
In 1980, the [[ABC 80]] used in the schools was regarded as becoming obsolete, and the National Swedish Board for Technical Development (''Styrelsen för teknisk utveckling'') was tasked to find a replacement. In 1981, the procurement ''Tudis (Teknikupphandlingsprojekt Datorn i Skolan) '' was launched, and while the decision was controversial, [[Svenska Datorer AB]]  was awarded the contract with development beginning in 1982. After Svenska Datorer went bankrupt, production was transferred to TeliDatorer/Telenova under [[Televerket (Sweden)]].

The computer was distributed by [[Esselte]] and exclusively marketed towards, and sold to, Swedish, Norwegian and Finnish schools, mainly high stage (year 7-9) and [[Gymnasium (school)|gymnasium-level]].

The computer was based on the [[Intel 80186]] [[central processing unit|CPU]] and with [[CP/M-86]] as the operating system in [[Read-only memory|ROM]] (although it could also run [[MS-DOS]] from disk). The computer had a wide selection of ports, including one for a [[light pen]]. The Compis project was criticized from the start, and as the move to [[IBM PC]] compatibility came it was left behind and finally cancelled in 1988 although it was in use well into the 1990s.
