[GreenKeys] Atlanta 33

And for that matter, the computer collectors that do want a 33 do not want a KSR or an RO.  They want something more than a terminal or a printer, they want a terminal/printer/storage system (paper tape).

I'm not like other computer collectors.  I also wanted a KSR, and now have one, with an Anderson Jacobsen acoustic coupler built in!

I still want an RO.

But you know what I want more than anything?  A wall-mounted ASCII machine.  I know they existed in the 35 line... was there ever one for the 33's?

cheers,
dj
