This thing just keeps on getting better and better! You should definitely try it out a bit for Nano. Seems like a fantastic, complicated desktop. I've always said about the Olympia SG1:
"They make fantastic portables. But, consider that they did not have space restrictions: that they could make the typewriter as big as they wanted to. That is this typewriter, and it is fantastic."
The moor I see the bottom of your M44, the more it looks similar to the bottom of my Lexicon 80E. The decimal tabulator linkages look the same to me. I wonder what else is similar between our two cousins?
Peter, I recently found a M44 in the Citroen-Garage thrift store, and the serial number is stamped next to that screw-like thing in the top left corner of this picture - nothing like that on yours.

I imagine this also applies to this Olivetti!
