SOlid points, Michael. However, horses for courses. I didn't think I =
would
use one, so when I bought my first laptop 18 months ago I bought a
second-hand 400mhz Celeron. I have since proved that I can't live =
without
it, since I work on lots of different sites and for different customers =
and
if I am at Site A and need to do a quick update or source some =
information
for Site B. I also manage to squeeze in the odd half and hour or hour's =
work
in cafe's and in other peculiar places (like when we are down the =
Coast). =20
I can justify it to myself, and that is all that counts!!! And it is =
amazing
how the advantages of the portability and flexibility can quickly =
outweight
in your mind the other disadvantages that you mentioned.
