As I mentioned in my earlier posting, I was involved with (actually an
officer in) the IBM Poughkeepsie Microcomputer Hobbyist Club.

When the PCjr (codenamed Peanut) was announced, IBM made a point of
sending one of the project planners up to Poughkeepsie from Boca to
give us a presentation. I volunteered to pick the guy up at the
Duchess County airport.  I had a hard time not breaking out in
laughter when he turned out to be about 4' 6" tall.
