I swear, Grant, you and I are such computer pack rats! I've still got an
old TRS-80 Model I and my old (formerly 128k) Mac Plus. I still own
virtually ever computer I've ever purchased, except for my very first two
and my second Mac (a IIci that I gave to my sister and brother-in-law).
Same for my Newtons...I still have 4 of the 5 I've purchased.
I do believe we need to "get a life" ;-) Or at least I need to get
another domain name:
www.billscomputermuseum.com!
(Say, if I recall, you own a bunch of unusual domain names. Do you
register through Network Solutions at $70 a pop, or go thru someone else?
Register.com had a telemarketer call me recently offering domain names
for $10. I didn't get all the details, 'cause I hung up on 'em....dang
phone spammers!...but now I'm wishing I had listened.)
