My adolescent fantasies FINALLY fulfilled!

No, not some strange thing with my 8th grade English teacher and a bucket
of whipped cream...

I finally got an ATR8000. Man, I dreamed of having one of these every
night, reading the SWP brochure until it literally fell apart. Every time
I went to buy one on ePay, someone would come along and push the price
*way* beyond what I wanted to pay. Anyway, I just got one for $60 (I know
many of you think that's still ridiculously high, but I've been waiting
~12 years for one of these things) that came with a giant stack of disks,
manuals, and cables. The usual CP/M stuff; Wordstar, Supercalc, etc.
Unfortunately, I'm at work and have to wait a few hours before I can try
it out.

Well, at least now I will stop harrassing everyone who posts to the list
about picking one of these things up for $5...
