The Price of Their Toys This year the science department at Benton had a new computer. The basic part of the Radioshack TRS- 80 was received last spring and they have received parts ever since. It was a three thousand dollar computer. Some of its basic parts were the video display, typewriter termi- nal, printer expansion interface, two cassette ROM and voice synthesizer. It could do routine laborious jobs at the speed of light and has been used so far for everything from computing grade averages to computing odds at Aksarben race track. Mr. Donald Lentz said that they’ve only scratched the surface of what it can be used for. What is the difference between men and boys? Yes, it’s the price of their toys. Jean Johnson S.S.
