But she's great on roadtrips, pops her head up when she hears the turn signals, etc and was appropriately awed by the view coming down the hill (I5 N) to Grapevine, into the big valley. She occasionally goes with me to surplus, is very skilled at staying out of trouble. We don't think of it, but old stuff has incredible and exotic smell history, a whole dog world invisible to us. She will go through every box, manual, cabinet and PC board of the NOVA4 with me. She insists, everything must be sniffed, knowingly and carefully (and quite seriously). Oh 'what'. Peruvian Hairless Dog. She a rescued dog. Invisible Dart is a Xoloitzquintli, but .25 P.H.D.

Of the 2 cats who choose to visit me (and spend much of their time with me :-)), the older one hasa preference for HP stuff, and likes to curl up on an HP manual. The younger one doesn't seem to care, and enjoys walking on my keyboard when I am trying to debug a program or whatever.... -tony

Just as many of the 2.5 and 5 MB cartridges are based on the IBM 2315 design, but are not necessarily interchangeable with it.
