[personal] wang 1220 photos & info

[Mike Hatch]

What sort of distance is that ?, (I'm not on the US), for that price and 
from the photo of the packaging I think you got a very good deal, transport 
over here (Uk) is expensive. We had a Selectric instead of an ASR33 on one 
of our mainframes, thanks for reminding me of them !.
