Notes::
The machine is the first (and only?) one to implement full IEEE
arithmetic including all bells and whistles. The Reference Manual
includes the IEEE spec.
The PEEK$/POKE commands are carefully designed to not let you see or
change private files.
Cards hold 1.3K bytes each. The same cards -- but not data formats --
are used with the -75*.
Current draw:
off 0.03 mA
on, not running 0.75 mA
program running/beeper 10 mA
This and the -75D are the only machines in the database that had price
INCREASES.
