Nice page ... although some of the picture descriptions are hard
to understand ... is 'Bit like Dodo' nw uncomon in your eyes ?
And what's about 'Rocking Horse shit' ? (Well, I own a SORD M5,
and it's one of only 4 units ever 'officialy' imported to Germany,
so I thought of it as somewhat uncommon).
Ta! Well, Dodos have been extinct for a long time, but I couldn't think of
something that was *nearly* extinct. Having said that nigh on 80,000 Lisa
1's were sold, though most were apparently upgraded to Lisa 2s since the
upgrade was free. As for rocking horse shit, have you ever seen any? :o) The
other analogy is 'Hen's teeth'. The Sord M5 is more uncommon over here than
the CGL M5 which was the European version. I suppose I should change the
picture to be my stretched Memotech MTX512 which never officially made it
out of the factory.
P.S.: I Like the 'Selling Sand to the Arabs'
phrase :)
*grin*

I liked it too :-)
*bow*
I think the difficult to understand captions are
English (as in England)
slang.
TBH I thought Paving slabs might have caused more confusion than, say, dodos
:)
