We had a couple of Wang Word Processors (I think) in our school that 
used those, but I never got to touch one.  Only the PETs that used an 
external audio cassette drive for data storage.  Probably took a full 60 
seconds to load a program from one of those things... not too shabby for 
a whole 4k.
