That's the one I had. I did mean that TA used "Alphatronic" across a
number of different machines. That one is specificially the
"Alphatronic PC" - unfortunately a bit confusing because "PC" is also
a generic term for a computer. In this case it was the specific model
name.

With regard to off-topic posting: I hope that too many people don't
mind. In this case it was an on-topic post that's gone off at a slight
tangent, but still within the realm of old computers. Unlike some
lists, forums, newsgroups, etc, that end up talking mostly about
crisps or TV shows.
