Almost a year ago, April 24, 2003, the Toronto Star did
an article on
collecting featuring myself and Kevin Stumpf. Even though the guy took lots
of shots in my basement, regretfully only Kevin made the big time, standing
in front of his ex-Ontario Power Generating IBM 1800. (Maybe it was
because
he had a tie on and I didn't.)
We got the whole back page of the Technology Today section, well ... except
for a gigantic Canon ad. Kevin's site was mentioned as was my own
collector's list at Geocities (which everyone here should be on!)
If there is any interest, I could scan this aticle and put it up on my site
for a bit.

Ping!
By a staggering coincidence, the 1800 mentioned (which is mine - Kevin had
been storing it for me) finally showed up at the Corestore today, in a very
large truck! I'll be updating the web page below with more photos tomorrow
night.
A couple of the pics from the article mentioned (I presume the same article)
are at:

If I can get my arse into gear and this thing running, I'll drag it to VCF
East... IPL diagnostics from punched cards, wheeeeeee! :-)
