Re: Looking for...

Krogg, he actually found it? Im curious as to who and where would actually
have one still in existence...i remember around in the '80's you could print
out banners on continuous paper on the matrix and they were all in ascii,
kind of like a mutant FABS..HUGE HUGE..also with various images to choose
from like birthday cakes, houses, wine glasses in ascii.

wow, im having a flashback :)
