    Here is a second example of BYTE's Systems of Note feature. The purpose of Systems of Note is to document what kinds of systems are being developed and utilzed by our readers, and how they are viewing the computer systems field as reflected in the choices of hardware and software componets. As an example of another system, here are my impressions of Roger Amidon's rather advanced shop. Each reader whose system description is submitted and publsed for this feature will receive an honorarium of $25 as BYTE's contribution to help further the state of the art.. Carl Helmers
