Ah, Linda.  I built my first microprocessor based system with a
then-new Intel 4004 processor.  I maintain two rather sizable files
that I call my YGBSM files to document the amazing things I've come
across over the years.  One is for what users have tried to do with
computers, the other is for the simply astounding crap I find in
supposedly professional code.

CD is built, will try and get it on the pony Monday.
