used to sell the Apricots back in the days. The PCs from Apricot and Grid stood out in terms of design, from the rest of beige uglies.

me too! In the pc business from 1981!, Apricots were great bits of kit. The GRIDs were good but very expensive at the time.
The Grid Compass series (especially the II models with the big screen) looked like it came from the future. Stunning in its era. Wouldn't mind seeing a reboot.
Yes, they were stunning. looked like a prop from bladerunner.
Were they actually available to purchase? Seems like supply of these and others was usually a bit spotty.
Yes, I had the Apricot Xen in the shop. If I remember correctly, they were not 100% PC compatible, and did not exactly sell well. Neither did the Grids. But both were great conversation starters.
