[Lazarus] how to get Type of Sender or Components[i] in order to Cast?

[Chris Kelling]

We have one in Room B. It is Ed Sax's old machine. It is an early model that has the chicklett keyboard. About the only distinction tge PC Jr has is that is was a finacial failure. Both style of keyboards are wireless, but you had to have the keyboard aimed directly at the IR receiver on the PC. 

If it has the newer style keyboard, I say we take it. We can put both styles on display to show the difference. Otherwise, we should pass.
