[Duo2400] The End for me?

[Cheyanne & Randy]

Greg,

	A very good Christmas story.  Duo's are like that; they kinda' just 
capture folks.  I've loaned or given away three of them and 
occasionally browse eBay looking for deals to fix up and give to folks 
whom I know need a decent computer.   I am thinking of sending off my 
2300 at the moment.  It's hard to let go of 'em but it sure is neat to 
see people who've never seen a Duo delighted   with them.  I had my 
2300 along as a  game machine,  digital photo repository and to stay in 
touch with home while I visited with an old college friend for a week 
before his wedding a couple of years ago.  He and my 2300 had a 
beautiful time together. :-)

	 He wrote recently, after running over his Clie, wanting a 
recommendation about which laptop to get, thinking he should avoid palm 
pilots for while.  He said something about me knowing more about 
computer than most of his friends and he also knew that I would 
recommend an Apple.  But, if I weren't recommending an Apple computer, 
what would I recommend.

	That is sort of like asking your thoracic surgeon, "I know that you 
usually use a scalpel and a laser for arterial grafts but if you were 
to use a chainsaw and kitchen utensils, which ones would you use?"


	Maybe I should send him a Duo :-).

happy holidays,

Randy

Remember that when you leave this earth, you can take with you nothing 
that you have received - only what you have given: a full heart 
enriched by honest service, love, sacrifice and courage.
