To diagnose my connectivity issue, I took my PB 1400cs down to the cafeteria today to see if the guest wi-fi was stronger down there. A physician came up to me as I was browsing with WannaBe and said "That's the oldest Mac laptop I've ever seen anyone using." I explained what I was doing, told him I used my 1400s for writing and Pismos for my main machines and how functional they still could be. It was a short conversation, but he was really taken aback. His final comment was "I have a two year old Macbook and I was thinking I needed to upgrade. Now, I'm not so sure." I wanted to say, man, that one is just nicely broken in, but I just smiled.
My former neighbor, an Oracle engineer, once said to me (back in the 386 era) "It isn't obsolete unless it won't do what you want to do." Truer words were never spoken, with regard to Macs!
