   Spoken like a True Ham Radio Operator, Keep The Boxes.   
      
   My wife scratches her head over why I still keep Factory Boxes that   
   my radios came in.   
   I've always heard the item can be sold for a higher price if the Box   
   is included.   
      
   I'm just wondering...is Your CP/M machine a PDP???? ??   
      
    EV> I was in a store that sold and repaired Commodore computers when an   
    EV> employee showed me how he could draw a scene by using the Mouse and   
    EV> a Graphics program on a Amiga.   
      
    HG> I recall myself writing a while ago that Commodore computers   
    HG> only worked with Commodore specified hardware.   
      
    HG> Some day later I realized that I had wrongly accused Commodore   
    HG> for that. Instead it was Compaq that was the culprit intended.   
      
   Hey!, they both start with the Third Letter of the Alphabet don't they?   
      
   The Radio Shack TRS80 pc's had ONE signal line INVERTED also.   
   Owners of those pc's had to buy Cards from RS to plug into the slots of   
   their computers.   
   iirc, ISA Cards made by other companies wouldn't work in the early   
   TRS80 models that RS sold.
