   As I have said here before my 1st "store bought" confuser was a TRaSh-80   
   Model 1. Family Video (the last or near the last) video rental chain was   
   run on a Tandy 1000 using BSD (historic) uNix. They didn't declare formal   
   bankruptcy and they are using that old horse to continue to run things as   
   they liquidate/repurpose  the real estate they squired along the way.
