Hobby Projects
There were a lot of different projects for the KC 85:
- a new keyboard (The original being extremely poorly manufactured)
- RAM disk
- interfaces (V.24 and others)
- text systems; WordPro actually featured 80 characters per line mode (4×8 font)
- connection to electronic typewriters (like the GDR-product "Erika S 3004") as keyboard and printer (but dot matrix emulation was very slow)
- programming language BASICODE (a special BASIC dialect); BASICODE-programs were even broadcast by radio

Famous quotes containing the words hobby and/or projects:
“My hobby more and more is likely to be common school education, or universal education.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“But look what we have built ... low-income projects that become worse centers of delinquency, vandalism and general social hopelessness than the slums they were supposed to replace.... Cultural centers that are unable to support a good bookstore. Civic centers that are avoided by everyone but bums.... Promenades that go from no place to nowhere and have no promenaders. Expressways that eviscerate great cities. This is not the rebuilding of cities. This is the sacking of cities.”
—Jane Jacobs (b. 1916)
