I had a very sad experience over the weekend. The Duo 280c, my pride and joy, a machine that I spent countless months and entirely too much money putting together, was destroyed by accidental contact with water (let's just leave it at that). I got kind of depressed, but I'm trying to move on, and the sooner I get rid of the body the better. So, take a look at my thread in the Trading Post and you can take it...just keep in mind all or some of the parts may be completely dead!

<marchie the bagpiper plays Flowers of the Forest/>And so ends the life of another 68k. May it enjoy eternal peace in Computer Paradise, where the SCSI chains of life are tossed away, keyboards are never grimey, and the Web is speedy. ~Chaplain Marchie Holder of the Compact Mac -

*picks up trumpet* *plays* *drops flag to half mast* <minute's silence> Sucks to hear that dude, but we can thank god that it died in the hands of a 68kMLA soldier. Oh well, here's hope to Cinemo liberating a PB550c!  Oh yeah, one other thing: Lets hope that i get a good report card from school, because if i don't, Mum said that dad could SMASH my PB145B! -------------------------- Pizzabox LCs RULE!!!!!!!
