Of course, *technically* one CAN use a Type I in all the above machines,
AFAIK. Not that one WOULD... So, either the seller was creatively
expanding upon the truth (*bites tongue to avoid attempting humor relative
to the US presidential campaign*), or the seller was ignorant. Probably
ought to see if anyone on the list has a 210 they're using w/ Type I's, at
least that way you could recoup part of your loss.
