Shit. That was luxury. When I started I had 2,400 bytes to run a complete
accounting and payroll in !

When I came back to computers and had 24k, I thought it was heaven. :-)


On another note....

I have a WYSE terminal (Model WY-60-01-02) sittin on the shelf doing
nothing. It was originally hooked via an Alloy card to an XT running Dos
3.3 with the terminal running Dos 3.2.
It is a screen with a keyboard connected via a International telephone plug
and has two 2 normal 25 pin sockets labeled  AUX  and MODEM on the rear.

Can anyone advise as to how I can use this as a dumb terminal off one of my
current computers (386/33)

Any advice (other than binning it) would be appreciated.

Cheers
Niels Petersen
