For those looking for information on putting computers out in public
spaces/exhibits, an article in the 13Feb95 MacWeek describes the MIKO from
King Products Inc. It is a modified Mac Powerbook 540 in special case
with a 640x480 16bit color touchscreen, with no keyboard, etc accessible to
the user. Specs are System7, 12/320, with all the standard expansion
capabilities. Obviously, any standard or custom-written Mac program
could be used with it; the touch-screen only interface for public use
gaurantees no monkey-business. List price is $6800 (yikes!) for a wall-
mountable unit.
The info given for King Products is: voice 905.625.1111 or 800.877.6456,
fax 905.625.0688.
I have no connection with King products, am making no reccomendation,
etc. Just relaying the information for those museum information providers
who may find it useful.
