I actually still have one of these. I've got a couple of novel length
stories on disks that I can't get to come up in any other program. A
Cat is a crossbreed- or a work processor. Pop in your disk, turn it
on and you're in business. I only quit using it because I got into
real computers, and had trouble finding a printer which could speak
it's language after the old one broke. The BJ-100 can be rigged to
work if you have the patience to play with the switches. But
everything you store can't be brought up again. The modems are too
slow to interact with anything now, so you can't upload the files in
ASCII. They were sort of precursors to laptops. A small monitor
attached to a keyboad. They were fantastic in their day, but as
extinct as dinosaur for lack of interfacing with other computers. If
anyone ever comes across a way to translate the files, please let me
know.
Kind regards
Garry
