I am doing some Aztec C updating over here... but!
My 6 large work tables in this office are littered with verything from digi
recording stuff and macs, PC's and C64's equipped with SD cartridge, PET,
etc, my IIGS, and //e with Zip Chip, Applicard (Yay Steve!) and Carte
Blanche and of course Microdrive from Henry (who I hope will eventually
un-hiatus)... the CFFA has been on my list for quite awhile to be honest...
but will we live long enough? Talk to me when we are 80 or so and I'll let
you know then.
Remember Jack Crenshaw (I think you do)... he programmed the Apollo
mission... and just afew years back he was on usenet in comp.os.cpm also
then mucking with Visual Studio and HTML and such... we corresponded a fair
amount... last email that I was in-on with Jack was in 2010... maybe I
should check-up on him... jcrens at earthlink dot net

Rock and Roll! For me my US-made Strat and the other Electrics, Acoustics
including the 12 string, the fiddle, the mandy, and the 5-string banjo are
relegated to the mid-hall foyer now, and the two PA's and mixers mikes and
such are in the 2nd story storage above my fish processing facility attached
to the house. My blues harps and holders are in boxes with old baseball caps
and articles of incorporation for various non-profits, proclamations and
diplomas and old pairs of eyeglasses. Lyrics and chords scattered through
boxes and totes with family albums and kids' report cards etc.
But now that I hear you have 2 CFFA's I want a couple too (and if Henry gets
back another Microdrive, this time a turbo!) Gotta get more money for my
fish I guess... because I am not going back to that bullsh*t corporate
culture... I ain't gonna work on Maggie's ISO 9000 Cube-Farm no more!
So Merry Christmas eh!
