Geocache Description:

The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates. 

 

TS-1000
I bought my first computer back in 1982. It was a Timex-Sinclair 1000 and it set me back $99.95. This may not seem like a whole lot now, but in 1982 that was all the money I had in the whole world!.
I taught myself basic and machine language on this little membrane keyboard computer.
The TS-1000 came with 2KB of memory. I eventually upgraded that to 16KB of memory. What a ridiculous amount of memory, there was no way I would run out of memory now. I could have ruled the world with 32KB of memory.
These days we talk in terms of gigs, HD and DVD's. Back in 1982 I used an old black and white television as a monitor and backed up my programs to a standard cassette tape. I can still here the screeching noise now.

In honor of my 2KB computer you need to convert 1KB into bytes and add that 4 digit number to both the posted North and West coordinates to get the final coordinates.
