Our PA system just announced that the IBM Systems AdVANtage VAN is
in our parking lot.   I zapped right out to it ready to 'A:PARK' a
Model 30.   Saddly, I have to report, that it appears that you must
have a microfloppy in the A: drive to carry out the command.   Neither
Model 30 in the Van had a floppy in A:, they were running off of the C:
hard drive.   Actually, wouldn't the command be 'PARK A:'???

P.S. - The Tektronix Bus makes the IBM VAN look sick.
