This response email from me turned up blank in the archive, I believe
due to the fact that the original email was in HTML and Outlook must be
doing something funny when I respond to HTML emails. Anyway, here is my
response in Plain Text.
Is there any way to make the listserv only send out plain text emails??

I still have to stand by my Dell Inspiron 5000e with the ATI Rage
Mobility 128 chipset. I've tried it in Win2k with DirectX and true
color and got good frame rates. I just got it back from the field last
week and tried J3D 1.2.1 Beta1 with my latest code and everything worked
great.
I believe the OpenGL driver worked well too, but don't remember if I had
any issues with it or not.

Subject: [JAVA3D] Laptop Update
Well, the purchase of a laptop isn't going as smoothly as I thought it
would.
I want a laptop on which I can run and develop Java 3D apps. I am told
that most Laptop PC do not have a fully compliant OpenGL graphics chip.
So, as mentioned before, I thought I'd buy the new Toshiba Satellite
2805-S402 with the GeForce2Go chip in it.
But I can't seem to find any! Toshiba doesn't sell them direct and all
the retail stores I go to say they don't have any, never did, and there
is no date when they will have them.
This might be a good thing. I looked a little closer at the 2805-S402
spec and it come with a 800 x 600 (SVGA) 15" screen.
I don't consider that very good. I would like at least a 1024x800.
So, I am thinking of giving up on the Toshiba and looking something
else.
Any thoughts?
