I've given a couple of the Diablo KSRs (that's what the Hitypes with the keyboard were known as). I didn't care for them much--no immediacy of sound and keypress--the two seem unrelated. Daisywheel printers are incredibly difficult to get rid of--nobody wants to pay shipping. I got rid of the last one by throwing in a complete system with it. Still have a NEC Spinwriter mouldering away. --Chuck
