While trying to clean out a bookcase today, I ran across an ALMAC/ARROW
catalog--commercial supplier of everything from HP9000 systems, Sun
Workstations, etc.  At any rate, Digiboard was the big supplier of PC
serial add-in boards.  The PC/Xem supported up to 32 serial channels.

Just leafing through the catalog, I ran across one item I'd never heard
of--the NCR 3125 Notepad compauter  8.5x11 480x640 VGA-compatible LCD
screen.  I guess it might be called a "tablet" today.
