[vcf-midatlantic] our new museum -- micro exhibit -- pick 28!

[Dean Notarnicola]

I agree with the cuts, except fir the Compaq Portable. But I can think of
what I'd cut to include it. I would say include the AT&T 3B2.  The Windows
3.1 machine should be a 5170. The Amiga should be a 1000 if possible.
