Comment Kaypro II (Score 2) 523

I had a Kaypro II. I did the Micro Cornucopia magazine II to IV upgrade and ended up with two 2/3 height DSQD floppies.

The Kaypro company was owned by the Kay family. I heard a description of Kaypro's demise as being caused by "Too many Kays, not enough pros".

if you had no access to a lab that would do process E-4

I think you actually mean "Process K14", the Kodachrome process, which involved 1 story high processing machines and a manager with a degree in chemical engineering. E4 processing was what Ektachrome, Agfachrome and Anscochrome used until the late '60s (Kodak) and the mid '70s (everyone else). I remember shooting Agfachrome 50 in the eary '70s, with gorgeous pastels.When Agfa discontinued the E4 Agfachrome 50 and went to Agfachrome 64, an E6 film, I felt like my pictures suddenly turned into clown posters.

From the perspective of 99% of people, they can carry a 15 pound laptop as well as a 2 pound laptop, and their hyper-sensitivity to 'extraneous weight' is a weak reason at best.

Enjoy your Kaypro II....
