I actually live right next to the town of Northglenn, Colorado in the US! I clicked your article just to see if it was the same and was shocked to find it is. I wasn't here in the 80s, but it's possible the City or State or maybe the Post Office (where the PO Box had to have been back in those days) would have some records? BTW, $21.95 from 1984 is worth about $65 (£52) today - that Guru wasn't cheap, but as long as you can impress your friends . . .
I'll have to see what I can do about the PO records. I forgot to mention that when I searched the Byte magazine archives, there were a number of ads with addresses in Northglenn, CO. Must have been a little tech Mecca back then.
That's really interesting! I wouldn't have expected that. Northglenn is a smaller town - especially back then, but who knows? There was a huge tech presence in its neighboring town of Broomfield in the early 2000's, so maybe "Northglenn of the 80s" was ground zero! Cheers, John! 👾
