"Armin himself, prior to his Boreland purchase, purchased the black $100.00
non-neg from one of the owners. So he told me." DUH!!
DUH!!!!! I wonder where the owner got it? Maybe Borland tipped him with it?

"Finally, why would Boreland make NCVs and non-negotiables fakes?"
DUH!!! Certainly not because he was trying to make money from chippers!!!!

MY FINAL DUH!!!!
DUH!!! I wonder where Borland got boxes of each chip you mention? All very suddenly in the 80's. Maybe the stork brought them?

ONE MORE DUH!!!!
Wonder why there are no dies for these chips at BJ.

Absolutely my last DUH!!!!!
DUH!!! I thought you were going to leave it alone with the post you already had the last word in!!!! <g>
