The Diamond Five was a dedicated word processor designed and built by Data Recall Ltd at Dorking, Surrey, England in the late 1970s and early 1980s. It was intended for technical authoring and secretarial use.
Capabilities
The screen was large enough to display an A3-size document. An included daisy wheel printer was attached by a non-user removable cable. Two 8-inch floppy disk drives were used for the storage of programs and files. The displayed font was not user-customisable. An optional RS-232 interface allowed communication with other computers (e.g. a Lucas Nascom 2). It used a Z80 processor.
It was replaced by the Diamond Seven.
