 You got one too? Have you ever been able to do much
with it?
(I picked up one for free at a flea market a few years back. Only about
4K, but I was able to write some simple Basic programs, and even save them
on tape, with it. . .) 
   I've actually got two...One under the Mattel name, the other under the
Radofin name.  Same machine though, as Radofin was the actual manufacturer of
it I believe.  It's a pretty simple machine, but interesting.  I've played
with the Basic somewhat, but haven't tried to do much.  What all do you have
for the Aquarius?
