ASR 33 is what we used in HS. Still have a box of paper tapes from back 
then that I suspect I'll never be able to do anything with again but the 
pack rat in me refuses to let go. Every so often I consider trying to 
decode them again.

For now I'll probably cut/paste a few of the CSL programs I'm most 
interested in and go from there I suppose.

That's the old Yahoo group isn't it? I had joined them on Yahoo years 
ago but never did much there.

Any other suggestions of interesting operating systems or software to 
try out besides TSB? Interesting development environments or uncommon or 
unusual languages tend to grab my interest. Not sure what all was 
available for the hardware.
