I am convinced that the rumor of Scandanavian -10s is either simply not
true, or blown out of proportion. The group mentioned above does indeed
have a DEC-20 of some sort, but no KA10s or KI10s as the rumor states.

This rumor has been circulating for years. Unless someone gives me
*concrete* evidence, I have to doubt the existence of the mythical -10s.
