I often wondered what happened to Cameo too .... man, that was a
long time ago. I still have my electric eraser sitting hard by me,
like an old soldier longing for the sounds of the battlefield. Might
hang on to the vellums, who knows, perhaps a museum might place some
value on the antiquities in my daughter's future.

When I switched from hand copying to computer, I found that
actually entering the notes took me about the same amount of time,
but the savings was in being able to manipulate things once
entered, just like with word processing. I now work directly to
the computer, and have a cabinet full of manuscript paper (King
Brand, not Cameo) that I may never use up!

Oh sure, I used Cameo ink and vellum. In my comp teacher's eyes it
wasn't really music unless it was sketched on a Cameo pad and
copied on Cameo vellum.
Later, one of the Cameo main employee's started her own company -
what was that name?
I never got along with pen and ink - the pens never worked right
for me. My wife copied my master's thesis score for me as a I fed
her the pencil pages. The computer was a godsend for me. And I
love being able to fiddle with old files - rearrange old
arrangements, etc.
