Richard,
Please don't mis-read me! I'm not down on the S/36 at all.  Excellent
machine designed for running a mid-sized office.  20-40 employees. Had
one offered to me in '87.  Had no need/desire and so it went to the
recycler.  In 1987, it was essentially worthless.

 Why is everyone so down on the S/36?  It's a great machine that kept many
 a business running for years.
