Mmm... Well, I shall try to review this weekend all the information of this
message thread (and the other two related) and shall try to do a resume to
incorporate in the article in Wikipedia. I shall try to send it too to
Cyber1.org to know their opinion.
Regards
SPc.

Would you like to expand this paragraph ? If you are sure about this

I think that would be a good idea to indicate it there. Or some kind of
reference.
I am not sure my information fits. My C64 emu ran against the actual PLATO
installation at UIUC, as far as I know, not MicroPLATO.
