It's academic at this point, of course, but the preliminary graphics library
is pretty decent, and the revised tape driver works without fault on my
Archive 60Mb drive. They probably were getting it together when the plug
was pulled...... Or else this is just a testimony to John's efforts at
putting out quality product.

*Sigh*.  After getting all the hardware weirdnesses straightened out,
now I have to go get a new version of somebody else's '386 V.3.whatever
and make *it* work. 

Oh well. Life with UNIX goes on.
