Interesting. We took Kaypros (one 2, and later, a 10, IIRC) to
the dig I worked on in College (1985, 1987, 1989). One of our
guys tried to write a program to graph our results on-site, but
those efforts didn't appear to be rewarding (we were using non-
invasive survey techniques with a soil resistivity box that I
had to keep repairing, and a proton magnetometer)
