[Spridgets] Midget not PC anymore

A Bantam is a discontinued line of small motor-cycle made by the British 
Small Arms Company.  It sold reasonably well.
It is also a small, noisy, scrawny chicken.

Homunculus is a short human person, not otherwise deformed.  As I'm not so 
affected I don't often get called a short ass.!  LOL

I have an Austin Healey Sprite.   Some friends have them and others have MG 
Midgets.  I'll leave it at that.  :-)

Anyway, who cares whether or not a  'Midget is not a Personal Computer 
anymore.'
