Will, I have been a CoCo user since 1984, and I have immensely enjoyed this 
mailing list and the old Princeton m/l over the years. While we both know 
there was only one who really walked on water, I have greatly appreciated 
reading your techincal and non-technical responses on this list.

As for the 28 year old computer, I actually bring it to the college and hook 
it up to an over head, thanks to Roy Justis, to show the students what a 
really good 1980s OS could do with 512k when IBM PCs could only dream of 
multitasking.

Cheers
