[Info-vax] Tadpole Alphabook 1 at last!

[Forster, Michael]

Congratulations! I was informed of the auction by a colleague, who has two Sparc book Tadpole's, but wanted this Alpha Tadpole and asked me not to bid.

Specifications listed in the auction showed that the model for sale had maximum memory and disk size.
