My 820 ran CP/M.  I used it primarily for word processing and a couple 
of spreadsheets. I dont even remember what software I used. The computer 
will no longer load the CP/M operating system so that is why it only 
burns electricity. It really is junk at this time but I hate the thought 
of getting rid of the beautiful mahogany cases all this stuff was built 
into.  Maybe I could resurrect the cases with a radio project. Hummmm.

Anyway, it is probably time to end this thread...this is a RTTY list 
after all.
