  I wonder.  A few weeks ago I bought for L1 at a car
boot sale a device 
 called a Microscribe 320.  (Made by a Welsh company, Microscribe Ltd., 
 but sold with a British Telecom badge.)  This is a sub-notebook (7 in 
 square) terminal with built in text editor, 32K battery backed RAM and 
 40 x 8 character display.  Before you all jump on me, yes, I know it was 
 built circa 1983.  It is a very nice machine, the only thing wrong with  
Further investigation shows that my estimate of 1983 was incorrect.  The 
design of the model 320 dates from around 1985, and mine appears to have 
been built early in 1988.

Just to keep the record straight.
