Please no flames.... but back in my younger days when
I used to (hack?) the Telenet X25 PADs, it seemed like
every other machine I ran into was a Prime with its
familiar "Primos" banner. I also had a grad student
that worked for me that HATED the one he used in
school so much that he bought it years later at the
Universities surplus auction, held a party and handed
out sledge hammers to everyone. You can guess the
rest.
Of all the years purusing the salvage yards, I have
never seem one. Interesting.
