Intelligent multi-user board specialist Computone Systems Inc is to acquire Intellicom Corp in an exchange of shares. Computone’s principal product is the ATvantage series of boards, which support up to 32 users on an IBM AT. Intellicom was formed as a breakaway company in 1986 and its return makes the combination the largest serial input-output board maker in the US. Future products will allow the clustering of up to 64 terminals onto a 386 box, and boards will soon be available for the IBM PS/2 and RT ranges. In the UK, the Computone pro-ducts are distributed by Tetra’s Tamarisk division.
