Doesn't the book also mention the Victor 9000? That subject came up
recently and I'd be curious to hear how the book rates it.

Were the sound and graphics systems very powerful, or just wierd? (Someone
said the graphics system was Apricot-like, but I don't know what that is
equivalent to.)

And IIRC the book also says: "If you can operate a mechanical swan, you can
learn to use a computer." :)
