Hi Bill,
How true of computer stuff in general! I'd like to get into it, but
it would mean a major investment, dumbing my trusty 486 plus old monitor.
I figure I'd have to start from scratch.
The 'up' side of obsoleteness is that the old stuff may still be
ok, and sells for cheap when it's second-hand. Like, remember 'hand'
scanners? Not so many years ago, and now, they're totally obsolete.
Cheers,
Rich Lahrson
