My question is where do you get access for a model like this? I know that my cable company would get mad quickly if I started letting 30 odd users start using my non-commercial net access?
My father jumped into the computer age with a Tandy TRS-80 model II.... with 8 inch floppy drives. Those things were so big you could play frizbee with them! It had one drive built into the system just like one of the Mac Plus (that was my first computer). Then when one drive was not enough, he got the drive expansion box with room for three extra drives (he only got one) and the box was about 24"x16"x18" (for one extra floppy drive!?!)
And the software... suprisingly, I only have fond memories of Visicalc (a spreadsheet) that was quite useful.
I saw it on TV a few weeks ago... A clock with 6 rows of lights to tell the time with in binary. I seem to recall it was about $30.
-D
As I have read... there are 10 types of people in the world - those who know binary and those that don't!

Oh... and I WISH that I could get access for $10.
