Cover of the September/October 1983 issue of Pro/Files
Pro/Files was an official Kaypro publication that covered their computers. Kaypro initially built portable CP/M based computers designed to compete with Osbourne. Later they built PC compatibles but they didn't survive long after that. The September/October 1983 issue includes:
Departments
- Letters - Lots of praise for the previous issue which was the first. Also, questions about the Kaypro 4 and Kaypro 10, and more.
- Q & A - Questions answered about moving stuff over from Apple II computers, diagnosing hardware problems, using a tape punch with the Kaypro, heat related problems, CRT problems, S-BASIC, and more.
- Intro - Creating a Kaypro user group in Portland.
- Take Off - An article about creating your own software to fill a need. And maybe you can even sell it.
