About MeThe OPD, One Per Desk, was brought out to fill a perceived niche in the marketplace: the need for a computer on your desk which would also handle incoming and outgoing telephone calls. It incorporates a monitor, keyboard, micodrives and a handset. When reviewed in 1984 in Personal Computer World the reviewer said "The OPD should be the busy executive's dream come true. It allows several applciations to run simultaneously, talks to telephone callers . . ."
