I hope you're suggesting that's a good reason _to_ use them :-)
If not, what's insane about a graphics display system that fills an entire
6' rack, contains over 3000 DRAM chips (and about as many TTL devices to

of Engineering Drawings may be of help'. That is the entire section on
maintenance and repair!
