According to an ad in Computers & Electronics (May 1983):

13 Good Re[part of magazine ripped]
the ACE[part of magazine ripped]

    1. Apple(R) //-compatible
    2. CP/M(R)-compatible
    3. 128K of RAM
    4. Built-in floppy disk drive
    5. Disk controller
    6. 80 column card
    7. Serial interface
    8. Parallel interface
   10. VisiCalc(R) keys
   11. Cursor control pad
   12. Numeric pad
   13. Auto repeat keys


It says elsewhere in the ad that it IS for an Ace 1200.  The 128K of
RAM and 80 column card make me think it's pretending to be a //e.
