Transformations
Its tasks were taken over by the Cosy company, which was the sales subsidiary of SZTAKI. The head of Cosy was Sándor Móricz, who had previously been at the head of Microkey. In practice, Cosy was the later name of Microkey. (This happened around 1986.)
After the 1985 school computer tender, it went bankrupt due to orders placed but not paid for.
