Howie?

[Boaz Bezborodko]

My parents found our old TRS-80 Model I level 2 in the attic.  They 
brought it down and set it on a desk.  My daughters immediately sat down 
and started formatting a document on the screen until they hit the 256 
character limit.  "Dad, why won't it go past this point?" :)

It still has the really annoying key-bounce.  I never figured out how to 
get rid of that.

I have a bunch of programs on tape, but I'm not masochistic enough to 
try and load any of them. :)

And it is worth every single penny of $300 believe me. White desk with a perfectly curved front edge, and cable drop slots in the back.
