Umm ... Sellam was definitely not looking at a AIM-65 when he wrote that.

I've got mine next to me and there are many differences:

The keyboard has an extra row of function keys and the connector is right of
centre instead of far left.
The display is much wider (40 characters instead of 20 according to the
website)
The PCB is completely different
The printer is different and placed further back.

In fact, it is entirely different!!

I've never heard of this model before and I'd be interested if these were
ever actually marketed, and if anyone has one.
