[Leica] OT W98, etc

[jhnichols at bellsouth.net (Jim Nichols)]

Bob,

I would not have upgraded when I did had my power supply not died in my Dell 
Pentium II machine.  As you probably know, Dell uses proprietary power 
supplies, so when that dies, the machine is dead.

I have used Dell machines since they were sold as PCs, Limited, before they 
adopted the Dell name. The only exception was a Compaq that I used for a 
while.  I also bought Dell for several of our grandkids when they went to 
college.  For the money, they are hard to beat.
