Re: [ARSCLIST] Is this audio? or word processing? or ? ? ?
For those who can't picture Steve on a carousel, I have photographic proof (Steve, you'll get your copy upon receipt of the ransom I mentioned...)

I have a similar playback device that uses 8.5x11 sheets of magneically coated material. It plays back with an arm that rotates with a head at the nd. It was a message repeater.
No one ever brought in a job for it so I never tried getting it to work.
Good seing you again, however briefly. You misse done hell of a carousel ride.
Steve
