Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical
minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which
holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd
by the clean end.

The differences between the Bondwell models 12 and 14 seem to be 128KB
RAM in the 14 (as opposed to 64KB in the 12) and double-sided drives in
the 14 (versus single-sided in the 12). You could try the Bondwell 14
