Mattel Aquarius FinForm Cartridge - Model 4178

(Mattel Electronics - 1983)

Aquarius FinForm Cartridge
FinForm provides a 63 column by 255 row spreadsheet program for you to do your home finances on. You could save your files to tape or print them out on the Aquarius thermal printer to save a hardcopy for your records.
To my surprise, I found that finform is pretty advanced for it's tiny footprint and could probably hold it's own against baseline computers of the era. But there are some flaws in the program, so I wouldn't attempt to run the books for your business with it.
