    Subject: Re: Clipping wires to upgrade

    I was definitely told many years ago that IBM shipped some of their machines sold as 8-bit pathways with 16-bit paths that could be upgraded by removing
    a jumper. Can't remember the model numbers (and it might have been 16/32 --
    it was a very long time ago).

    Subject: Re: Book Review: America's Biggest Lottery Scam by Bob Sand
    (Jones, Risks-33.37)

    When I attempted to buy this book or get it at the library, I learned that
    the actual title is "The Winning Ticket: Uncovering America's Biggest
    Lottery Scam", and the actual author is Rob Sand, or rather, Rob Sand with
    Reid Forgrave.
