Does anyone know the story of how Exidy ended up with the Sorcerer? The machine simply doesn't seem in keeping with the company itself -- the company did video games, yet the Sorcerer lacked sound, color, and by most arguments, graphics. It seems like it was designed by a 3rd party. Anyone know more? Maury 23:31, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

I used to work there, '78 to '79; as I understand it, the Sorcerer started as a way to keep the production line going steadily. Arcade-game production was always feast-and-famine: hire a bunch of production workers for a run of a few hundred units, and then lay them all off until the next run. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.174.149.170 (talk) 01:09, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
