I'd love a VT103 but I guess shipping to the UK
would be a bit prohibitive!
My gf's coming over to the US in August but the last time she brought
something home for me (TRS80 MIII) some baggage 'handlers' forgot that glass
breaks when its dropped :(
I beleive the original packing box for the M3/M4 had the following
printed on it : 'Do not drop, or CRT may implode' ... Mind you , I once
had a CRT sent by Royal Mail (who are good at wrecking things!) in a
cardboard box with _no_ packing -- just rattling around in the box, and
it arrived in onve piece. How, I will never know...
Is it time to repost the story of the 'Danger Implosives' sign :-)
