I’m left wanting to hear more about the motivation for dumping the type in the first place. What kind of swindle was suspected? Did the partner try to reconstruct the type?
I had a 200LX in college. I managed to get Linux set up on my main computer so that it would provide a login terminal on the serial port, where the LX was plugged in.
This meant my girlfriend could check her mail while I used the big computer, or vice-versa.
Later I got a PCMCIA modem so I could dial in and use my shell account when visiting my parents, even if their sole computer were tied up.
I just discovered this site a few days ago, when trying to plan overnight rail travel in Europe. Everyone else (including the rail companies!) had missing or outdated information and often sites that were simply broken, and then this guy had like seven different options with all the details and links, everything fully up-to-date, and even recommendations for hotels for the options that included a layover.
Absolute godsend. I hope he got my referral-link bonus.
Okay, thanks, I did read that but it slipped my mind. Still, though, that makes it a little less bad but doesn't invalidate my argument completely, does it?
