Those are all actually "pin-writers", as in "no-spin". I meant the 
ball-type "daisy wheels". They do one thing no other printer will do, 
print through 7 carbons with true perfect letter quality.

I had one connected to an Apple][ back when. I could print at least a 
case of paper with one ribbon. I have a serial port nothing uses 
anymore. So, just to possess one of those clattering beasts would be my 
notion of fun. The one I had came with a keyboard! :) Ric
