*blush*  True.

I was _sure_ was using that machine before I graduated (which was
summer '84), but upon going back to the paper trail, that machine was
bought in '85 (as a -3/160, actually; it was later upgraded).

Sorry about that.  (I hate it when I drag out old memory and it turns
out to be wrong....)
