Does it? The M100 has a 40*8 display. The next machine to come out was the
M200 with a 40*16 display, Multiplan in ROM (as well as the M100
programs) and bank-switched RAM (up to 72K?). I thought the M102 had a
40*8 display, and was simply a slimline M100 with a revised logic board
(used surface mount chips?), etc.

If that's incorrect, what is the size of the M102 display?
