Very nice Rich! I'm kind of old, but when I got started, CRTs were  
already around (Vic-20) so you have me beat by a couple decades.

PS: it is one of those interesting coincidences that right about the  
time I got FBII to create an application for my company to use, I also  
bought MacWise to let my co-workers access our old micro system with  
their new Macs.
