I apologize. I am still racked with pain and guilt over the demise of my father. He was an itinerant Peruvian pan-pipe player until suddenly put out of work by a beer bottle sample on the CMI in the mid-1980s. CURSE YOU, FAIRLIGHT! He went into terminal decline, believing that the CMI blew while his own haunting music merely sucked. <sigh>

A daisywheel printer is not just for Christmas! And I have serious doubts about the fidelity of your bottle noises!

Yeah, but it doesn't have the 80 character x 25 line green display and a price tag of $40,000, does it? I LAUGH at your tiny USB ports!

Are you referring to the "Word's Sexiest DJ" thread?

I'd quite forgotten how fuzzy and blurry the 1980s were. And how amazingly yellow.

But... wow. What a great, crazy toy the CMI was. We shall not see its like again. At least, until the next great, crazy toy. There should be one or two between now and the next big economic recession. Unemployed technologists can be amazingly inventive.
