Holy cow...

Don't try this either.... About 12 year ago I took a DEC rainbow on a train in England. This involved putting the LK201 keyboard in the inside pocket of my raincoat, stuffing cables and floppies into the other inside pocket of said coat, carrying the CPU box under one arm and carrying the VR201 monitor in my other hand... I ahd checked that there were not rules preventing me from taking such a device on the train. Said rules didn't actually mention computers, but portable TVs were OK, and there was nothing about the 'bow that was more dangerous than a TV (the most dangerous bit, IMHO, was the CRT, which would be the same in both the VR201 and a similar-sized TV). Anyway, I noticed that the VR201, carried by its handle, screen-down looked a bit like a mine (the explosive type). So I made up some signs which read 'Danger Implosives' and stuck them on the sides of the VR201. I got some very odd looks.... As I said, don't try this today... -tony
