My wife has a Vaio--an older one with the 10.4" display. With her extra
life battery (doubles as a lift to put the keyboard at an angle), she
gets 4 hours of play time. The keyboard is an excellent size--more like
90-95% of a real keyboard (vs. 80% with our 2400's). I think the display
is ok. Windows--well, unfortunately, it isn't as great as the Mac, but
you know what--the more I use it, the more used to it I get.

Unfortunately, more and more of the stuff I want to run is Windows-only.
I just put Virtual PC on my desktop, and I've been using that more than
the MacOS.

I'll always have an Apple--I always thought it would be a Mac, but it
will probably be my Apple IIGS, more likely.

Too bad they never had a portable IIGS--oh, that would be my 2400 with
Bernie to the Rescue on it!
