Hi,
I purchased a Dick Smith "System 80" quite a few years ago - it was an
Australian TRS-80 Model III clone. This box was awesome - with 48KB RAM
and an inbuilt tape drive. It absolutely screamed along. I even got a
small B&W TV with the deal (second hand PC and TV) to use as a monitor.

On another note, does anyone else see the benefit from having the output of
'tar ztf .lrp' available on the server as well?
Just a thought.

Everyone,
Please take a look at the new proposed format for our DocManager documents.
I don't want to start modifying the rest of our FAQs until I get some
feedback on this format. Thanks.
Why does the DocManager...

Everyone,
Take a look at this Compact Flash drive. It has a hardware write protect

Everyone,
I forgot to mention this. When creating new sub directories in the packages
tree, set the ownership to "yourname.leaf" and the permissions to "2664".
