# New Gear for the System

I have recently purchased some new gear from AERCO for use with the AERCO disk system and for use with the RP/M mode. So. far, I have been very pleased with what I have purchased from them as I have stated before in numerous articles. The newest acquisition from the AERCO line is the dual RS232C interface. I am lead to understand that this will enhance the use of the 2068 using the AERCO disk system. As usual, I will give it a good work out when it gets here. Since it has already arrived, work has already started and it is performing quite admirably.
