/needle/stone/  /paper/sand/

Where have all the good dot matrix printers gone?  At my last job I
found one hooked up to a ACD machine from 1989 that had 12 meg of
ram.  Any way this printer was the same type of DM printer that I had
back in 1989.  It was pritty freeky.  The ACD box had a amber screen
as well so all that was needed to give the appearance of my first
computer was a nice big 286 cpu with two 5 1/4 drives and I would have
felt right at home.  

Speeking of old hardware a friend needed a new keyboard and I stoped
over at at thrift store to see if i could find them a IBM clicky one.
Didn't find one a the first shop ( I had in the past for just $2) but
did find 4 AT keyboards.  To bad I got rid of that 386 last year.

It's a damn poor mind that can only think of one way to spell a word.
