Introduction

The FM TOWNS II Fresh TV was a computer with built-in television functionality announced and launched by Fujitsu in May 1994. This model was a pioneering “TV computer” because it added a TV to the previous gold-standard FM TOWNS multimedia computer, which was the world’s first computer to come standard equipped with a CD-ROM drive.

Other than the ability to receive television signals, the Fresh TV has the same specifications as the other FM-Towns computers
