When you come across the CDC Pegasus, post some pictures. I played with
one of those for a few months, but I remember very little about them.

Subject: Exxon Qyx Typewriter thingy
So what is an Exxon Qyx good for? Other than as a typewriter?
I just found one in my garage (I swear if I dig a bit further, I will
find the Ark of the Covenant in there). I found the manuals and software,
but I can't yet get to them (really REALLY big pile of gondola shelves
are in the way, and I have to move a fridge to get the shelves out...
<sigh>).
I'm trying to decide if I should haul this out for my garage sale this
weekend, or hang on to it. The fact that it is a typewriter with a floppy
drive is interesting enough in its own right that I might keep it... but
that pack rat mentality is what got everything so burried in the first
place (something I am sure just about everyone here is familiar with).
Is this just an old word processor, or can you do something more
interesting with it?
