They did indeed.  In an era of model 33s the boxy 2000 with the equally
boxy detached keyboard was Really Very Cool.  I seem to recall that one
had to be careful about power cycling them too quickly as they'd eat
HOTs if you did.

I remember the Ann Arbor Ambassador as well.  The novelty of lower case
characters (with descenders, as I recall) in a case that made the adm 3a
look like the pig that it was.
