   Howdy! Holger,

    HG> In late May this year I told you my computer history complete   
    HG> with the names of the machine menufacturers.   
      
    HG> Apparently the only thing that got stuck in your memory was the   
    HG> Sinclair ZX-81.   
      
   You may be ten years older than me but I got the "First Sign" first.   
      
   Looking back through messages I saved I didn't see that message in May.   
   You and Alan talked about computer machines in February, and last month   
   We talked about PDP and ZX81 computers.   
      
    EV> The Radio Shack TRS80 pc's had ONE signal line INVERTED also.   
    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-   
      
    HG> So, that is only hearsay!   
      
   Yes, I heard a couple of Hams talk about that over the air many, many   
   years ago.   
      
   Some things I haven't forgotten, I wish I could remember all the things   
   I've heard and/or read.
