[GreenKeys] Atlanta 33

Thu Aug 17 15:11:22 EDT 2017

There demand in the US for 33 is driven more by the computer
collector and those that want to reproduce their past. To them they
are more "valuable" then 35's.

Either on used a 33 a  remote terminal into a computer running
a time share OS and 90% of them you had one language option
BASIC.

Some Uni's had a terminal room with 35s. The one I use to crash
as a 14 y/o did.

Then there were those who bought the first Altairs and SWTP68s
Glass TTY's were very rare in those early days and if you had $$$s or
were lucky you bought yourself a ASR33.

Im get asked about every 3-4 months if I have a 33 to sell and I say
yes but they need to be rebuilt. 90% of the guys are not .. lets just
say mechanically endowed.
