Hi,

Just for reference, there *were* indeed PCs shipped with a Turkish ROM font
— I, myself, have seen some in Hungary (!) in the mid-to-late ’00s.
However, those didn’t have proper CP857 but a modified CP437 that only
included the six Turkish-specific letters in their CP857 locations while
leaving everything else intact.

Regards,
Vacek
