That is a riot. BTW, if you think that display sucks, haven't you
ever seen a Kaypro 2000? It looks like the //c LCD display might be
slightly better!

Hey Zane.
I didn't know you were on the BACCL!
I guess Eric just finally found the moderation queue :)
I have a Kaypro 2000 but have never got around to firing it up. Or, no,
wait, I think I did when I first got it but can't remember what it looked
like. I guess I can go re-visit it to compare.

I had a Kaypro 2000 as my main system from about mid-1987 to
mid-1990. It wasn't bad for playing various Infocom games on, but I
remember playing "Battletech: Crescent Hawks Revenge" and the only
way I was able to find the one location was to take my game floppy
and run it on a friends PS/2. The crazy thing is I used to run an
early version of DesignCAD on it.
