Curiously enough I knew Hal Hardenburg (the man behind Dtack) back in 
the early 80's, and even happened to run into him the day his first 
68000 arrived. He is normally fairly excited, and having this chip in 
pocket practically turned him into a perculator. Hal did some amazing 
stuff, and I know I have some of the issues of Dtack grounded buried in 
my files. I lost track of him around 81 when I made a job change. I 
wonder what happened to him?

Since I happen to be a 6502/68k asm programmer, I am SURE I can make it 
do something, but whether thats much fun remains to be seen.

I didn't think of it at the time, but the fellow I bought my card from 
is a regular at this swapmeet, and just the sort of guy who might pull 
the cards and just bring them out to sell, but maybe maybe maybe he also 
stuck the floppies in a box and didn't bother to bring them out.
