Most people only know it as a floppy disk drive controller but in fact, it is a computer without graphics circuitry. The FDD or FDD 3000 could be used in three different ways: as a disk drive controller for a TC 2048 or T/S 2068 or ZX Spectrum, running TOS (Timex Operating System) as a CP/M system, using a TC 2048 or T/S 2068 computer running the Timex Terminal Emulator as a console. as a CP/M system, using the Timex Terminal 3000, a terminal keyboard, as a console.
