Dr. Missoum Moumene now works in medical devices, after working for Schwinn for 3 years as a Product Engineer. (His name is at the bottom of the CAD drawing on the second page.)
I love the description of the "world-class computing system" - I'm sure it was, but ... the massive storage! 2.5 "gigabytes"!!

I have one of the '89 models with the "standard" tubing.
I have my eyes open for an OS version but they don't seem to come along very often...just the Asian built numbered series with the unicrown fork.
