The Scrib was designed as a portable drafting tool for journalists : it was linked to an acoustic coupler, enabling reporters to send their articles over standard phone landlines.[1][2] Its integrated tape recorder was able to save up to 8000 characters on a microcassette, with second socket available for quick rewinding of the tape.[1]
The screen was mounted inside the case of the computer, at the rear, and displayed characters which were shown to the user on a foldable mirror.
The Scrib was awarded a design award at the 1978 Wescon Show.[1]
