DominO123 Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Had two, one, the old type manual (someone gave it to me, was an antiquity), didnt work, so I got rid of it, I have an authomatic too, this one still works, got it in the fist years of high school. It even can delete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vava Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 I used to have one of these (I only found a picture of the advert) http://i12.ebayimg.com/06/i/001/39/e6/5be2_12.JPG The one pictured was a bit more recent than mine. It was pretty cool - I suppose it was a first generation word processor. You'd print line-by-line - but before printing you could edit to your hearts content. I had it up until a couple of years ago when I tried to sel it on-line - but to no avail... And Arpa - yes I've used a real typewriter, but this was the only one I owned...
