Nice job on the O1 video!
I was fortunate enough to pickup a nice, clean O1 with the 80-column
"Screen Pac" for $5 at a garage sale last summer. The floppy drives don't
seem to age very well and both of them required disassembly and thorough
cleaning. After taking care of that and some judicious reseating of
chips, it booted right up!
It's surprising, but 80-column text on the internal display is _almost_
useable. It seems to have very good bandwidth for a low-cost monitor.
