Based in Montebello, CA, Kowin Computer Corperation was founded in 1983. Kowin was dedicated to bringing high powered, easy to use, affordable multi-user computer systems to every business desktop.

Kowin introduced its first multi-user desktop computer system to the marketplace in 1986. The system was powered by two tightly-coupled Motorola 680X0 processors fitted on a 8.5 by 11 inch PCB.
The system came with the powerful AT&T Unix V Operation System specially tailored to take full advantage of the multi-processors architecture. In addition, the system was bundled with an Office Automation Software.

COMX World Operations was an associate member of the Hong Kong-based Wo Kee Hong Group. The company launched its multi-user microcomputer system DL-1 in 1982. The microcomputer system was based on the Motorola 6809 processor. Up to eight terminals can be supported by a basis system.

One unique feature of the system is the memory mapper, a memory management unit which allow the system to break the 64K memory limitation imposed by the processor.

Comptec System Ltd. was a solution provider system house. It was an OEM of HP minicomputer, CalComp Digitizer, Tektronix Graphic Terminal and a host of other computer products. Its clients consisted of architectural firms, paging companies, and geographical surveyor.
