RE: OT : Sinclair was RE: Metalink Again

I recently ditched a mac se. I opened it up (to save the hard drive) and was suprised to see a bunch of signatures ingraved on the inside of the case. One of the names was Steven Jobs. Does anyone know if that was common. ( I have oracle 4.1 PC diskettes are they rare?)

I have a copy of PC Magazine volume 1, number 1 in my bookcase at home.

The only thing is we cut out a coupon that was on the inside of the back cover, so there is a corner missing. The one will all those wooden puppets standing on the computer, and Charlie Chaplin.

I remember standing at CompuCentre and the sales person telling me assembly language for the IBM PC was going to be really tough because of "shadowed" memory -- I think she meant segmented memory...
