    EV> I'm just wondering...is Your CP/M machine a PDP???? ??   
      
    HG> What is that??   
      
   EV> I remember hearing in the olden daze one of the computer Name/Model#   
   EV> was PDP-11 iirc.   
      
   In late May this year I told you my computer history complete with the

   Apparently the only thing that got stuck in your memory was the   
   Sinclair ZX-81.

    EV> Owners of those pc's had to buy Cards from RS to plug into the slots   
    EV> of their computers.   
      
    HG> That can be called really dirty tricks.   
      
   EV> I'm fairly sure that is what I've heard about the early RS   
   EV> computer(s). -snip-
