   Actually makes the 32 char model less useful because you would be   
   switching back and forth with the page button to see all the text.   
      
   The 32 char button is called 'Video Cut' and is on the back, the 'Page'   
   button is over the '-' key. Next to it is 'F1' which enables the   
   cassette (for positioning etc.) F1 is useful.   
      
   The relay on a Genie is bigger and more loud so software that play with   
   it creates quite an effect. I have one breakout that does this (came out   
   of a magazine, PCW probably).   
      
   As I see it the 32 char mode of the Genie is so stupid that I modified   
   my old Genie so it works like a Model I in this regard. It was at the   
   same time I widened the characters to 8 pixels, so I was reworking the   
   divider chain anyway.
