Ebay with no name, but have 5 hard drives. I think
this "name game" comes from HAL in 2001, a space
odessy. It's a movie way before your time.>

1. I'm not rich. In fact, the computers and the net are my ONLY "luxury." 
Other than them I'm at subsistence level. True, I bought the 7200/120 
when it was new (times were better for me then), but my boyfriend snagged 
my G3/266 Beige for $15 off Fleabay, the Powerbook 5300c I bought for $30 
from the Swap List, and while I got it for free, my old Powerbook 190 was 
another Fleabay purchase ($25). I just got the "new" monitor for my G3 
last week -- for free because my boyfriend packratted it out of his local 
dump for me, and he had a couple extras lying around his house (same kind 
of sources, so they were free, too) which he also brought down and gave 
me as spares (he tested them, they work, and this new monitor is 
incredible!).

2. Uh, no. I saw the movie "2001 A Space Odyssey" in the theater when it 
came out.  ;-)
