   I remember reading about people using the 400 in factories 
and darkrooms, where spills of unusual liquids would kill a 
normal keyboard.  That didn't stop me from replacing mine with a 
Stackpole keyboard, though. 
  
   The Atari 8-bit computers were the forerunner of the Amiga.  
Not a bad heritage, when you stop to think about it.
