   I was speculating that the 'TV Typewriter' may have found some use in   
   titling home video projects, albeit crudely. Then I realized - 1973? Wow,   
   not too many VCRs out there at that time!   
      
   But there were a few, even though they were expensive. Anybody that would   
   build the TV Typewriter, though, would probably be an early adopter.
