Selling keyboards without the terminal

[ED SHARPE]

I like  my   xps. I  do not  make  grocery lists on it  I  edit  news  video  with it...   for  video editing faster is better and  what  I  really  want is  not  yet   fast  enough!

 
 
speaking of   video and  keyboards and computers...
 
I  need  an AMIGA  keyboard  to go with  the  Amiga  with video toaster one of  our cable  TV  friends   contributed for a  display here...  the  enigma  now is  which  display to put it in?  computers or   video production and television?   Think I  will put it in  video production   as  what  makes it  unique  is the  video toaster  card...

Computer Software Boyle's Law:
extraneous actions, features, ads, etc. will expand to fill all available 
space and speed resources.

For example:
Operating system distribution requires a double layer DVD, instead of a 
single sided 5.25" floppy.

When you want to type a shopping list, is it quicker on the new machine? 
(How long from power cycle on the amazingly fast Dell XPS before Office 
gives you a blank document screen?) Does a shopping list need to have 
PICTURES of eggs?

10 years ago, at the college, a memo announcing a room or time change for 
a meeting was done on Word, printed in color, scanned, and attached to an 
email. (I'm not sure WHY, but how else to get a horizontal rule that was 
offset by a couple of pixels from one end to the other?) I wonder whether 
they have now switched from the same half dozen words now being done with 
video and sound?
