I came after the paper tape, but I remember way back in elementary school learning to type on an apple II with talking typer from aph. It had an echo synth that I didn't understand, and two disk drives (5.25") and took about 5 minutes to boot. Then it would crash if I backspaced to many times in the date, and the whole process would have to be repeated. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cecil H.
