I wondering if I received a 'second hand' mouse unit...  In the mid to
late 90s I acquired an 'excess' (can there REALLY be excess here?) 28
KSR from someone in Washington state.  Unfortunately I can't locate the
person's name at the moment, but the loot also included a Dovetron (non
tempest) plus a stack of paper.  I've been playing with it ever since
and do plan to finally put it on the air this year now that I have a
permanent place to set it up.

I ask about the 'mouse' connection since the stuntbox had the mods for
CRLF mentioned earlier, so I'm wondering if there are a list of the
serial numbers that were included in this lot?  Also, mine has the
'speed shift' gear box.  Were any of the mouse machines so equipped?

It's a beautiful machine and was lovingly cared for and I hope to 'pass
it on' when my play time is over (which I hope is still way down the road.)
