Does a VIC-20 count??
Only to the extent that when I brought one back from Oregon to Canada, where they weren't available at the time, I had it bungied to the back of my motorcycle. When the customs agent asked what it was, I told him a computer, he said sure, and waved me through.
I think I ended up putting 23K of additional memory in and using it to rum amateur radio teletype beside my IMSAI 8080.

Back when I got my IMSAI, I was travelling a lot with my job. So, just in case, I specifically listed it on my insurance policy. It took some effort to convince my insurance agent that I actually owned a computer. ;-) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
