I should look into that.  I have access to digital cameras in that
particular lab, and no super-secret proprietary stuff would be
revealed...

Got another commie today on the way home at a garage sale.  A 'classic'
C64, a 1541 and a 1541-II, plus two third-party printers and all the
cables and rigging.  It also included a whole TON of what appeared to be
commercial boxed software, except there was not a SINGLE floppy diskette
in the batch, just all the fancy color-printed boxes.  Some dastardly
soul probably snatched and put MS-DOS stuff on those disks fifteen years
ago...
