@thomasfuchs In 1987, most business computers were text based and monochrome, and the Mac wouldn't be taken seriously by most business users until ... I dunno ... mid 2000s?
There was just a really big resistance to switching everything over to Macs, but in the mid 2000s many IT departments grudgingly allowed one or two Macs in order to do iOS app development.
Before Windows 95, there really was no telling if/when business computing would join the whole "GUI" thing.

@thomasfuchs It was marketed against things like the DecWriter and other similar hybrid dedicated word processors.

@thomasfuchs There was a later run of DECWriters based on the same hardware as the Rainbow, launched in 86/87.
