Arthur C. Clarke and I both used the same freakin' brand of computer. Sweet.
Of course, he produced a lot more with his Kaypro than I ever did with mine (or, truth to tell, with any other computer I've ever owned, or ever will own). Still, it makes me smile just a little to know I had some very, very small connection to an immortal.
