Английская Википедия:Advanced Digital Corporation
Шаблон:Infobox company Advanced Digital Corporation (ADC) was a privately owned[1] American computer company based in California, active from the 1980s to the 1990s.[2][3] The company was founded by 1980 by a group of engineers, in order to market their single-user and multi-user expansion cards and peripherals for S-100–based computers.[2]
In 1983, ADC introduced a pair of their own S-100 computers, the Super Six and the Super Star.[4][5] In 1984, they made the pivot to production of expansion cards for the IBM Personal Computer,[2] with one (the PC II, co-produced by Link Technologies of Fremont) allowing the IBM PC to be used as a multi-user platform, with as many as 32 concurrent users.[6][7] Toward the late 1980s, they introduced their own 386SX-based PC compatible systems under the PowerLite name, to critical acclaim in the tech press.[8][9] ADC was initially based in Garden Grove, California, employing 35 by mid-1983.[10] In late 1983, they moved to Huntington Beach.[11] By April 1984, their employee headcount reached 75.[12] Its president was Hossein Asadi (born 1961, also known as Hossein Asadibagheri).[13][14][15] The company entered bankruptcy in 1990.[3]
Their Huntington Beach headquarters were the subject of an armed robbery in September 1988, with Asadi being bound and gagged while various merchandise was stolen. Asadi sustained no physical injuries.[15]
