Geez, Ron-  that's about as far into the dinosaur era as you could possibly
go... and not have filaments!

...but then again, how could you NOT have room to keep it?  Those were
darned tiny machines, compared to the TANDYs , IBMs etc of same vintage...
or a KAYPRO for that matter...

But honestly... I think there's more memory in this KEYBOARD's buffer than
in the T/S.  I see they've got 512mb RAM in video-cards these days, and I
still haven't managed to build a COMPUTER that needed that much RAM...

DK  :-)
