Close enough. The internal story was it was a design that was used on the
deektop of an engineer whose last name began with an L. Somehow I didn't
buy it. The TRS-80 design was not very imaginative and some of the holes
showed. What was scary is if the guy that did the trs-80 design was good
he could have reduced the logic some and also incresed the speed!
