[DuoList] 2400

[VICTORIA.DUGGAN]

  Hi Willie

Thanks for the input I will be using the 2400 as an email and letter  
writing mac and also so that i do not have to take the G4 ti i have  
out and about (to thin) I really did not like taking the Pismo i have  
out but needed to upgrade so the Ti came into the Pic. Also just sold  
my 550c with 167mhz nupower cpu upgrade so feeling lost and needed  
another old friend to use, The 2400 just popped up on ebay this  
morning and as i know the seller did not hesitate. I will be really  
glad when she turns up as i have wanted one for about 4 years now  
just never found one.

speak later vicki
