Mine is circa 1981, I have had three or four accompanying monitors shot out from under it in that time, but whenever the repairman comes I save the keyboard and swap for the new one he brings. (I have my favorite F-key settings on stickers on the bridge and I don't want to have to make up new ones. Besides, since this one is apparently going to last forever, why roll the dice again?) As the years go by, other people in my (growing) firm bring in all the "fad" CRTs but I just stick with Ol' Reliable. btw as far as PC keyboards go I am happy with the Keytronics 5150, it is just a tad light compared to the Hazeltube's but not too much and it is COMPLETELY cleanable, a big plus. -- Tom Neff UUCP: ...!cmcl2!phri!dasys1!tneff "None of your toys CIS: 76556,2536 MCI: TNEFF will function..."
