1987: A "STATE OF THE ART" COMPUTER!

Wow! Look at the features on this 1987 "KAYPRO" computer! As I age...no, no....as WE age, I can't help but experience an extreme fascination for how fast our high tech age is progressing. I remember back in the 1980's when I graduated from a "Brother" electronic typewriter, which I thought was "state of the art," to an Epson laptop computer I purchased from my buddy, Wayne Davis, at that time the Editor of the late, lamented "Mercer Messenger." It had an LCD screen with 10 lines max! That old Epson ran on an outdated operating system known as "CPM." There was not "floppy" disk, rather a mini tape cassette stored the intelligence! Then I went to what I thought was surely the ultimate computer. A little laptop with a floppy drive which allowed it to store 720 KB of intelligence! Wow! While I was writing for the "Messenger,"
I recall lusting for that KAYPRO which was on a full page in the Messenger.
