[plug] Install

[Phillip Summers]

And when I was a lad, my first computer had 4K of memory, a 32x16 line
terminal that displayed data at a startling 110 baud. A good operator back
then could enter the hex data for a program faster than it could be loaded
from tape.

Anyone remember the Electronics Australia 2650 Microcomputer?
