The Keyboard Component was an addon meant to convert the Intellivision into a full-fledged computer. The keyboard component had 16KB RAM shared with the master component, its own 6502 CPU and a built-in tape player. It also had its character generator, able to overlay high resolution text on top of the master component's video. While promised since the system's launch, it never got beyond test marketing, selling only 4000 units which Mattel would eventually buy back. | The Keyboard Component was an addon meant to convert the Intellivision into a full-fledged computer.
