Actually, I do vaguely remember reading about the Lorraine in Creative
Computing (or some such similar mag.  It was a friend's copy.)  I remember
thinking "no way could anyone make a computer so rad that cheap."  Then
about a year later when I was looking for something to replace my TRS-80
Model III (This was in '86, and yes, I still have it.) I remembered the
article, so I picked up a used 1000 for $1800 and hey, I love it.  Of
course, I _did_ upgrade to a 2500.  Floppy-only systems are such a pain.

Just a random reminicance from
