I was just received some information on Olympia's machine, the "People".

It has:  1 8086 with 5MHz clock.
         2 655Kbyte Diskettes.
         1 80 x 25 line display (640 x 475 pixels -- bit mapped).
         1 Parallel, and 1 Serial (RS232-C) interfaces.
         1 91-key keyboard; 12 fn keys, numeric keypad, cursor controls,
              very non-IBM like (Hurrah) and doesn't look like it is very
              "ergonomic" at all!  (Hurrah Hurrah)
         128Kbytes of memory.

Options include:
         10Mbyte hard disc.
         Color Monitor.
         Memory up to .5Mbyte.
         Two serial and one IEEE 488 interfaces.

It runs CP/M-86, CCP/M-86 and MS DOS.  Its language is Pascal (MT+?),
though a few Low Order Crufts (LOC) like CIS-COBOL, LEVELII COBOL, and
CBASIC may be run.  How much is it?  Sounds neat, is it?  Where do I
find a Fortran for it?  In the LA area, who sells them?
