Good God! You all are really old . . . Just like me, right in the middle of all of you. I had vacuum tubes in high school punched cards in college in 72 Fall and was designing and building CPU's in the mid 70's in college then taught Basic and Fortran in college before going to work in high speed communications in the early 80's. This is my first Apple product purchase.
Isn't it amazing that all most of want to do is type stuff into a computer, save it, bring it back up and maybe print it out and MicroMush has, after all these years, still managed to screw that up for the world!

It had a red LED and didn't say anything I could understand! I believe it was a kit that people could buy but I have no idea what it could do.
