It has a 4GB hard drive, I think its 96MB of RAM, runs on Windows 98. I
looked around until I found a site that would let me download Acrobat
Reader 5.1, because anything later probably would freeze up the system. I
use Mozilla 2.1 occasionally, although I mostly surf the web on my newer
Satellite Pro with 1 GB RAM and 80 GB hard drive. For text email I use
Juno 5.0. I use MS Word 2000 (or maybe earlier) and very occasionally
Excel (to keep track of my gas mileage). This laptop was old in 2002, in
fact, I got it free because it was formally classified on inventory as
garbage. It has one USB port, and also still has a 25-pin parallel port,
which can talk to the printers I pick up for a song as rummage sales (HP
DeskJet 822C and 822C, LaserJet 5L). And it still has a working 3.5"
floppy drive. I connect it to a BackPack CD when I really need it.

OK, its my turn to pull something out of the past that Jeanene said:

Wait until I copy the wording of the proposition on the ballot to you! 
If I 
hadn't already known how I was going to vote, I would never have been
able 
to figure out the proposition!  It was the dumbest thing.
Our democrat governor is really good.  I don't think many republicans
voted 
against her!

No, I have not kept archives. I was getting all my files transferred from
one slightly worn out Toshiba Tecra 550CDT to another, faster-moving,
Toshiba Tecra 550 CDT. (At this point only Lance will really be paying
attention). My Juno files were so huge I couldn't move them, so I had to
archive and purge, and ran across this. Sounded like a flash from the
past to share with everyone.

I've got my SENT files and RECEIVED files down from 186 MB to about 88
MB. The new machine is moving faster, I left behind a lot of useless
stuff, and I have half of my 4 GB hard drive empty. (When I got this
machine, in 2002, people who had machines four times as good were asking
when they could get something up to date. But the files I back up
regularly are only 400 MB).

ALL THAT, JUST TO REMIND EVERYONE THAT JEANENE LOVES ARIZONA'S DEMOCRATIC
GOVERNOR.
