Back in the day, putting an AM radio on the logo area of your TRS-80
keyboard/system unit and contolling the CPU carefully was a way of
making "music"...

(BTW, doesn't the fact that the system board was inside the keyboard on
systems like the VIC, C-64 and TRS-80 take the wind out of the sails of
the "zero footprint PC" companies?)

Also, what would the effect of a laptop ban on flights do to the amount
of commercial travel? ;^)
