The programs I have for it, plus the very attractive design of it, make it a very nice computer to have. Being that the graphics are excellent, even by todays higher standards, there are many graphics intensive programs that make it look very cool. Before I go to classes in the mornings I leave it in displaying a map of the earth, satellite orbits, with technical phrases scrolling by in Russian. You have to do something when you take Russian and orbital mechanics. In aiming it at architects and their offices, they came out with an array of neat ergonomical products for it. Like a floor stand and monitor pedestal. The only products that would fit that they don't carry, are a drafting board and a sitting stool. But then again, most architects probably have them already. So, I'm pleased. And yet, to my memory, comp.sys.tandy has never had a single article posted that even mentioned the machine. Now it has.
