Steve did you have REAL 360K floppies? That was later for me. I had
a genuine copy of an IBM Personal Computer from Japan with a mysterious
Phoenix BIOS, whatever that was :-)
It had 2 floppy drives with 64K byte of RAM. The operating system
was on one floppy and the work was on the other. It was a REAL Powerhouse!
