I went to the computer show in November
http://www.marketplaceshows.com (next one in January) and got two
Toshiba Satellite Pro T2400CS for $75. They're 80486, but they've got
SCSI-II and dual PCMCIA ports type III and II built in. I want to
make a portable CD tower burner/ripper. I figure when I get it
finished, I can bring it to the meetings, so people can convert their
CDs to MP3 and burn their favorite distros too (as if we don't get
enough distro donations).
I'll try to dig out the receipt. If you're interested in getting
their number, email me offline. I think they're in Orlando.
