The "Early Summer, 1990" catalog shows the 150 the way you remember it.
They even have a picture of it working with the tractor feed and the
lid is off.  Their price is $249.

So what does the net think about the Bondwell B310 in the DAK catalog?
A 286 with a 20 meg hard drive sounds pretty good for $1,299.00.
