Seequa Chameleon
View on Wikipedia
The Seequa Chameleon was an early 1980s luggable personal computer released by the Seequa Computer Corporation in 1983. It was capable of running both the MS-DOS and CP/M operating systems. It did so by having both Zilog Z80 and Intel 8088 microprocessors.[1][2][3][4][5] Chameleon approximated the hardware capabilities of the IBM PC running MS-DOS and was compatible with software such as Flight Simulator. It was not a huge success in the market.
Seequa Computer Corporation was based in Annapolis, Maryland.[6] It was founded by David Gardner (President) and Dave Egli (CEO), one of David's business professors at the University of Maryland. Seequa competed against the early "transportable" computers from Compaq.
