    By the way, I'm trying to resuscitate my good old PowerBook 100 but, alas, to no avail. I put it away some months ago, switched off, perfectly functioning (well, the hard drive was dead, but the PowerBook worked well using floppies and RAM disks). Recently I fell in love again with it, and...

    It's mine, and it's home!!!

    I have been looking for a TAM for 8 years. In all my ineffectual hunts, the best deal I encountered was 1,500 Euros -- which of course I did not have. People have been giving me the occasional Mac stuff for free because they know I am a collector, a Mac evangelist and the like, but something...
